Abstract With the inauguration in the U.S. many government and government funded websites and data went dark. With first hand experience of trying to salvage lost web pages and data, I will share about salvage projects in the US - both institutional and personal and share with participants how to web archive on their own, and best practices for preservation now, and in the future.
Type Training/Demonstration
Track Emergency and recovery: natural catastrophes, climate change, war zones, culture-averse governments, human rights and other urgent challenges that jeopardize GLAM work in a time-sensitive manner.
