The Republic of South Africa has a modest but established preservation community within its sizable library and archive sectors. Because limited professional education and training opportunities are available within the country, many information professionals heavily rely on other means outside the traditional classroom environment to get information about preservation developments and activities. This article explores the distribution methods and associated challenges surrounding the dissemination of preservation information in South Africa.
