Title A name given to the resource Institutional Repositories and the Principle of Open Access: Changing the Way We Think about Legal Scholarship Subject The topic of the resource Web archiving Description An account of the resource Institutional repositories resemble archives in that they store, preserve in perpetuity, and index their holdings. They thereby require a similar approach to building and maintaining their collections. Additionally, institutional repositories increasingly publish a variety of scholarly works produced by the members of their institution. In this article, Carol Parker discusses the rationale for developing in-house repositories for law schools, emphasizing the impact institutional repositories have on scholarly publications. Following a detailed history and summary of the open access movement with copious notes and legal references, Parker argues that authors’ rights and income received by both authors and publishers do not suffer by in-house storage and publication. Readership increases and despite concern for reduced peer review and loss of quality control, she cites the precedence and success of the scientific and social science community’s embrace of self-archiving and dependence on institutional repositories. Parker acknowledges the initial amount of time and considerable investment required for developing a repository in accordance with the Open Archive Initiative has deterred many institutions from developing in-house repositories. She also cites several benefits for using proprietary software or hosting commercially based repositories that facilitate access to a wide network of scholarly publications. However, Parker also avers that ensuring authors’ control and extending the repository to include multimedia and unpublished works can best be achieved by institutional repositories.

Title A name given to the resource Digital Curation/Digital Archiving: A View from the National Archives of Australia Description An account of the resource Cunningham avers that digital archiving, digital curation, digital libraries, and digital museums are distinctly different functions despite the common conflation of the terms by the public. In this article, he argues that digital archiving should begin with a systematic method for capturing and preserving data before the receiving institution ingests the items. By taking a preventative approach to data loss, the digital archivist must work closely with government and business institutions as part of an information management workflow. Cunningham credits the National Australian Archives for having the foresight and initiative to propose recordkeeping standards and protocols for digital archiving, and most significantly, for asserting that digital archives should not focus their expertise on the digital object or end product. Rather, digital archivists should focus on preserving the historical context and manner in which the content was presented. By advocating the use of open source software and other standards ensuring cross-platform flexibility, the Australian archivists aligned the ideals of preservation with the performative function and accessibility of the content. Preserving the long-term accessibility and context of the items ensured greater accuracy and evidentiary value than strictly focusing on the preservation and migration of digital objects. Abstract A summary of the resource. This paper considers similarities and differences among the concepts of digital curation, digital archives, and digital libraries. It argues that, from a recordkeeping perspective, the phrase digital archive has been misused, even hijacked, and that this misuse obscures fundamental issues associated with the capture and long-term management of archival resources. The paper also argues that digital archiving requires active archival intervention across the entire records continuum, and that, as such, the Open Archival Information System (OAIS) reference model is deficient because it ignores the need for pre-ingest archival activity.

Instructional methods include all aspects of the instruction and learning processes from planning and implementation through evaluation and feedback. This article asserts digital archivists must become involved in the creation and management of digital data as part of the preservation workflow. It is an important reminder, that not only did the National Australian Archives present international metadata standards and protocols for preserving the presentation and context of historic items, they established a just cause for focusing on and overseeing the entire life cycle of digital content. Additionally, the article defines the skills and education needed for expanding the archivist’s responsibilities from print management to digital workflows.

In her most recent entry, "The present and future of audiovisual archives: Screening the Future 2012, Los Angeles," she discusses critical archiving issues including: challenges of digital preservation and updating metadata for researching audio-visual data, social implications of personal digital archiving, and using digital archives as critical reading and media literacy. Yun embeds links to the diverse digital archives, software tools, and web sites of the presenters she features in her blogs, including her own publications and presentations. Her belief that "most primary sources belong in the hands (or on the screens) of users," and her mission as an archivist to "add context and longevity" to records of historic value are both evident in the information and educational service her blog provides its users.

Title A name given to the resource Copyright's Paradox Subject The topic of the resource Copyright Description An account of the resource At its inception, U.S. copyright law was intended to be a limited federal grant for the public good that promoted creative expression while balancing the First Amendment’s freedom of speech. Changes in the copyright law since 1976, compounded by the threats from digital technologies to media conglomerates and publishers, has shifted the emphasis on encouraging a diversity of expression to conflating copyright with property rights. In his book, Copyright's Paradox, Netanel reviews recent cases of copyright infringement against the First Amendment and contrasts increased readership and economic gains by electronic publishers against claims of hardship. He proposes a “recalibration” of copyright to reflect digital technology’s “empowerment” of individual creative appropriation of electronic media and that would balance the citizen’s right to access and expression against the protection of the author/creator’s financial reward. As copyright law currently exists, digital archives are increasingly restricted from ingesting and providing access to its collections.

Title A name given to the resource Preserving Digital Information Subject The topic of the resource Archives Description An account of the resource Preservation of digital data requires anticipation of potential threats to the integrity and authenticity of the items. Although future environmental and intelligence threats may be impossible to predict and thus, prepare for, Henry M. Gladney describes viable solutions for the long-term preservation of digital collections. Beginning with a clear mission, founded in both archival standards and a high level of technical expertise, Gladney outlines methods and procedures for producing ample copies, migration to newer forms of technology, facilitating search and retrieval functions, and preventing data rot and corruption. Throughout the text, he reiterates the importance of deeply understanding the unique structure and operations of digital objects (whether born digital or the digitization of analog material) and suggests greater focus be placed on the representation and sustainability of these objects as opposed to debating the structure and operations of a repository. To assure interoperability between institutions and future technologies Gladney proposes the “Trustworthy Digital Object" method. In addition to providing technical solutions, Gladney also engages philosophical arguments on what it means for an object to be authentic, accessible, and valuable.

Title A name given to the resource Making Digital Cultures: Access, Interactivity, and Authenticity Subject The topic of the resource Web archiving Description An account of the resource Hand investigates political and economic power, digital technologies, and culture. Although he does not cite digitization as a cause of decentering economies or other cultural changes he does acknowledge broad trends related to digitization. One of the trends discussed is the increasing invisibility of the “infrastructure of contemporary digital culture.” Networks of information, in order to maintain speed and efficiency, conform to a logic that “atomizes the subject.” Hand explores the effects of digitization, including the logic of speed, as they pertain to access, interactivity, and authenticity. Access and interactivity address the fragmentation and customization of both digital technologies and societies, implying a decentralization of power and the illusion of greater choice. Authenticity illuminates contemporary society’s transition from predominantly analog to digital technologies and the subsequent replacement of notions of the “real” and “hyper real.” Participation in Web 2.0 platforms is illusory and belies the underlying commodification of information and inauthentic claims of democracy. The significance of Hand’s text for building and assessing digital archives is found in his discussion of authenticity and the challenges experienced by public archives in their attempts to balance demands for access with conflicting standards and principles of provenance and intellectual property rights.

Title A name given to the resource Blown to Bits: Your Life, Liberty, and Happiness After the Digital Explosion Subject The topic of the resource Web archiving Description An account of the resource The ubiquity of digital data and its seemingly effortless and transparent transmission in routine commerce and communication is rarely discussed from both technical and socio-political perspectives in one work. In this book, however, the authors provide a detailed technological history of digitization while also illuminating the social and cultural consequences of this information explosion. Two areas of concern for the authors and of particular interest for digital archivists are the changing view toward privacy and knowing what data should be preserved or deleted. In the former area, Abelson, Ledeen, and Lewis explain the gradual shift in perceptions of privacy as digital devices including credit cards, cell phones, digital cameras, and GPS trackers that encode and embed personal and local data. Consumers of these devices become acclimatized to the trade-off of personal privacy for the conveniences they provide. Data leakage and unethical trading of information, however, is another type of trade-off that challenges those responsible for securing and maintaining digital content, (which the authors contend is regulated by the U.S. in piecemeal fashion). Tracking and securing digitized documents are matters of concern for archivists, not just to balance the needs of the citizen’s right to know and to privacy. Knowing what to make accessible, for whom, and what must be done for long-term preservation requires an understanding of the technical properties of its collected artifacts. The authors discuss the technical properties of text and image, underscoring the importance of applying this knowledge to storage methods. In addition to storing data, the authors also discuss the difficulty in permanently deleting data, despite the short life of technological hardware and software. Creating multiple copies, and sharing content by standardizing protocols and data structures, requires widespread coordination and what the authors describe, “creative compromise.” Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Abelson, Hal Ledeen, Ken Harry R.

Title A name given to the resource Salman Rushdie Discusses Creativity and Digital Scholarship with Erika Farr Subject The topic of the resource Digital humanities Description An account of the resource Erika Farr, digital archives coordinator for Emory University’s MARBL (Manuscripts and Rare Books Library), interviewed Salman Rushdie, noted author and Emory University’s Distinguished Professor, in a compelling, lengthy discussion regarding writing and computers, and the university’s recent acquisition and digitization of Rushdie’s works. Rushdie’s archive includes his Apple computers and disks as well as print-based journals, drawings, and other unpublished items. Rushdie explained his original purpose for donating this hybrid collection was in response to a professor’s invitation to allow the university to house and preserve his works. Serendipitously, Rushdie was also writing his memoir and discovered through the collaborative process of selecting items to be published against those which would remain hidden to protect family privacy, that not only were his memories prodded, but they were corrected as well. Farr concurred with Rushdie’s acknowledgement of the greater fragility of digital data and cited the digitization and frequent migration of the archive countered the old custom of “benign neglect,” (storing items in places where they remain unused and forgotten). Rushdie shared insight into the different types of technologies used for writing (from typewriters to Twitter) and despite making his notes and sketches available to public, he maintained the solitary nature and depth of concentration characteristic of his generation of writers.
