This online tutorial, entitled "Digital Preservation Management: Implementing Short-term Strategies for Long-term Problems" is a must-read for anyone involved in the digital preservation of anything–text files, archival documents, images, anything.  Hey, it even won the Society of American Archivists 2004 Preservation Publication Award.  I also like the fact that they have a "Is this tutorial right for you" quiz to take before you start.  As someone who does training on a regular basis, I often long for that "pre-requisite quiz," which (in-person) can seem authoritarian and contrary, but online can be a blessing.
