Title A name given to the resource Virtual Preservation of Contemporary Architectural Heritage in Developing Countries in Absence of Protection: Digital Reconstruction, Recording, and Archiving before Complete Disappearance Subject The topic of the resource Digital Humanities Description An account of the resource This journal covers the topic of Malaysia, and how it is an area in the world where digital preservation is not that strong, which makes any historical heritage that can be found is at risk of being lost. As such, the journal covers cases where they go to Malaysia and gain digital version of information regarding historical buildings in Malaysia, such as the A&W PJ contemporary restaurant and the structure of another building's design. There are a lot of historical elements within the Malaysian area that showcase a lot of the culture of the people, as well as giving a better idea of how the people lived, showcased in the architectural structures of the buildings that may not be seen used elsewhere. As such, it is seen as a wise decision to digitally document this information so that it may be found again in the future, preventing any of it from being lost or destroyed overtime. Methods of preserving these kinds of data required for the researches to go to these locations in person, taking close looks at the layout of the buildings, taking pictures of the ways that they were structured and built, then coming back to create 3D models of the buildings as away to preserve their image.

Title A name given to the resource #MeToo in Sweden: Museum Collections, Digital Archiving and Hashtag Visuality Subject The topic of the resource Digital Humanities Description An account of the resource Uimonen discusses the Nordic Museum in Stockholm’s #MeToo collection and the public submissions to the collection. It also “analyses the museum’s rationale for collecting what is considered to be difficult cultural heritage.” Unlike most archives, it does not contain images. The article proposes a new visuality in digital archiving: “hashtag visuality.” The article claims it is visual representation of social media. The author argues that the amount this visuality for the hashtag occurs in Sweden is a statement regarding sexism and violence in a country that is believed to be feminist. The author states hashtag visuality has made an impact on how this topic is discussed and acted upon and that it has become a movement. I think this journal’s discussion of hashtags impact on archiving and movements is important to consider for archiving purposes. It not only directly mentions archiving, but also how these hashtags start movements that need archiving work to be done. I liked how it considered a new form of visuality and how that impacts community archiving. I believe this article is different than other data in the archive and considers how social media is shaping human experience and movements. I think this is unique because older archiving would never consider how hashtags can influence the field.

Title A name given to the resource A few too many? Some considerations on the digitisation of historical photographic archives Subject The topic of the resource Archives Description An account of the resource Baylis counters the idea that there are too many digitized historic photographs for public use by stating that there is too little information contextualizing these photographs. Using the Larcom Albums of 19th century Irish prison photographs housed in the New York Public Library’s photographic archive, Baylis reconstructs the original context of the photographs from each album, pointing out the differences in content, photographic style, technique, and description. She also recounts the history of the collection and the shift in meaning and context from when original owner, Larcom first organized and classified the prisoner photographs into an album to when albums transferred to a writer and eventually to the New York Public Library. Each album, while featuring prisoners from the same Irish prison within a similar time period, was unique in its categorization of criminal as opposed to political prisoners. However, because this information was recorded in a manuscript located elsewhere, the superficial visual similarities obscured the significant differences between the two albums. Since digitization of these photographs, they continue to be recreated in meaningful contexts far different from their origins. Genealogists interested in Irish ancestry are the predominant users of this collection, assembling individual photographs and records as an “assemblage” devoid of any “temporal anchoring.” Baylis notes that one of the results of digitization is the tendency to rely on photographs for surface meaning and visual reference, rather than recognize them as trace elements of a past, containing their own rich history and layers of meaning.

Title A name given to the resource A Free Digital Library Subject The topic of the resource Archives Description An account of the resource In a lecture at e.g. 2007 librarian Brewster Kahle introduced his radical idea to create a free, open access digital library with the aim of “bring[ing] all of the works of knowledge to as many people as want to read it.” He uses the Amazon.com website as a model for how he would like to organize, and provide access to the multimedia library he proposes. Kahle notes that digitization is the greatest challenge, arguing that a 10 cent per scanned page cost is miniscule compared to the demand and need for information to be digitized. Brewster continues by explaining how they have begun to seek out, and store audio and video by reaching out to artists, and individuals who are interested in storing and sharing their work for free. He discusses two of his projects “The Internet Archive,” and the “Wayback Machine” which respectively archive the web, and store previous images of websites at various points in time.

Title A name given to the resource Academic Librarians' Varying Experiences of Archives: A Phenographic Study Subject The topic of the resource Archives Description An account of the resource This article reports on a study investigating academic librarians' varying experiences of archives in order to promote understanding and communication among librarians and archivists. A qualitative, phenomenographic approach was adopted for the study. Three different ways of experiencing archives were identified from analysis of interviews. Archives may be experienced by academic librarians as 1) a place which protects collections; 2) resources to be used in accomplishing tasks such as teaching, research, or outreach; or 3) manifestations of politics. The third way of experiencing archives is the most complex, incorporating both the other experiences. The results of this study may help librarians, especially academic librarians, and archivists communicate more clearly on joint projects involving archival collections thereby enabling more collaboration.

Title A name given to the resource Archiving Cultures: Heritage, Community and the Making of Records and Memory Subject The topic of the resource Public Participation Description An account of the resource This source explores and outlines the concept of a cultural archive. It examines how different cultures and groups celebrate their heritage and collect their memory through intangible forms of expressions as sources of archival records, such as oral traditions, performances, and memory text. Bastian uses those forms of record to demonstrate them as proof of relevance to different cultural groups. Here, she highlights the importance of community identity. Some key factors in the book include definitions of cultural heritage and archival heritage while emphasizing intangible cultural heritage. The book also offers traditional archiving research methods alongside analog and digital models to analyze both tangible and intangible forms of cultural expressions. It offers models for constructing cultural archives with different examples. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Bastian, Jeannette A.

Title A name given to the resource Between Archive and Participation: Public Memory in a Digital Age Subject The topic of the resource Collective memory Description An account of the resource Haskins examines the effects of the Internet on the memory work of archives and the informal, vernacular style of the broad public. Examples of the vernacular style of memory work include the spontaneous display of mementos at memorials or sites of mourning, and uploading personal stories and photographs to the Internet via social media. Traditionally, archival memory stores and orders material traces of the past without the presence or engagement by the public. However, the Internet continually archives the transmission of media and exponentially, the private opinions, ephemera, and idiosyncratic methods of organization of its contributors. The diversity of public opinion and the sharing of content afford both potentially beneficial and destructive consequences. Participation in memory work by a greater cross-section of society that is unaffected by more conservative, institutional restraints supports the values and beliefs of a democratic society. Conversely, that same diversity fosters insularity, given the widely fragmented content and the commercial profit gained by nurturing individualistic self-expression. Haskins proposes, through her examination of the 9-11 digital archive a balanced approach to centering memory work by cultural heritage institutions with guidelines for public participation and fostering a comprehensive view of history.

Instructional Method A process, used to engender knowledge, attitudes and skills, that the described resource is designed to support. Instructional Method will typically include ways of presenting instructional materials or conducting instructional activities, patterns of learner-to-learner and learner-to-instructor interactions, and mechanisms by which group and individual levels of learning are measured. Instructional methods include all aspects of the instruction and learning processes from planning and implementation through evaluation and feedback. Haskins illuminates one of the most critical challenges facing builders of digital archives: balancing the time-tested standards and methods for storing and providing access to a comprehensive representation of cultural knowledge against the demands for digitization and greater public participation. In this article, she alerts the reader to the potential loss of historical consciousness and a “self-congratulatory amnesia” resulting from the Internet style of unbridled public expression. Archives should facilitate broad perspectives and a sense of the larger body politic. As digital archivists, we provide the contextual information, tools, and interface design that may either enhance or detract from the idea of cultural memory. cultural heritage memory new media photography http://dar.cah.ucf.edu/files/original/ee2b9095d12e307b43fd0da31f401da3.png f30bc86e8f793cc28f0176c28f852ca4 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Between Archive and Participation: Public Memory in a Digital Age Subject The topic of the resource Collective Memory Description An account of the resource In sizing up the notion of public memory, rhetoricians would be remiss not to consider the increasing influence of new media on today's remembrance culture. This article addresses memorial functions of the internet in light of recent scholarly debates about virtues and drawbacks of modern 'archival memory' as well as the paradoxical link between the contemporary public obsession with memory and the acceleration of amnesia.

Title A name given to the resource Challenges to born-digital institutional archiving: the case of a New York art museum. Subject The topic of the resource Web archiving Description An account of the resource This article focuses on the challenges institutions such as the New York Archive Museum (NYAM) face when dealing with born-digital institutional archives. The findings are presented through a case study of NYAM using three data sources: analysis of network file storage, focus groups with staff (81 individuals total), and an analysis of their digital records in archival storage. Through the case study they found that the greatest challenges for born-digital institutional archiving are social and cultural. Essentially the main challenge is inspiring individuals to transfer physical material into a digital archive so that it can be accessed long-term. The article then discusses how this transfer is hindered by many different variables, which can be addressed through infrastructure development and education. Finally it is claimed that in order to overcome the impending challenges the archivist must follow a "multi-pronged approach."

Title A name given to the resource Conversion of Primary Sources Description An account of the resource Deegan and Tanner explain that primary source materials come in all forms, and to digitally capture these materials, one must carefully consider certain aspects. In the article, they explore numerous materials: documents, visual materials (glass, canvas, film, fabric, etc.), three-dimensional objects, and audio/video recordings. They contend there is more than one method for capturing original source materials, and therefore, careful planning is required, as is the assessment of cost, quality, conservation, and usage. They discuss the advantages and disadvantages of digital capture and conversion. The main piece of advice is to consider the purpose. What is it is that the digitization is aiming to capture? They list numerous digital capture methods (such as OCR) and discuss the pros and cons of each. The last topic discussed is editing that material that is captured, and they explain the different software tools available for this endeavor. Deegan and Tanner conclude with advice: understanding the capture process of primary sources is important even if one never plans to carry out these activities directly because it is vital to understand the various implications and consequences of the decisions that have to be dealt with in any project.
