Description An account of the resource Archives are collections of primary sources, cataloged and grouped for the purpose of preserving and making accessible the records of society’s cultural and historic heritage. Laura Millar, noted archivist and author of Archives principles and practices, defines the mission of archives “to acquire, preserve and make available the documentary memory of society…”(Millar 2010). These entries will focus on the explanation and description of an archive and why they are important to society. What does it mean to be an archive and what is the value of an archive?

Title A name given to the resource Digital History: A Guide To Gathering, Preserving, And Presenting The Past On The Web Subject The topic of the resource Digital humanities Description An account of the resource Daniel Cohen, professor of history at George Mason University and director of the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media and the late Roy Rosenzweig, professor of history and innovator in digital scholarship at George Mason University co-authored the book, Digital History: A Guide to Gathering, Preserving and Presenting the Past on the Web. The book is divided into chapters beginning with the evolution of digital historical scholarship and concluding with guidelines for planning and preserving an historical digital archive. Historical research has been both enhanced by and reshaped by online resources, and the authors believe the interfaces to these resources have also shaped genres. Additionally, the authors emphasize the importance of establishing a partnership among scholars, librarians, and archivists for the purpose of creating new knowledge.

One of the parodies features a baby dancing to music protected by copyright, which ultimately led to the publisher’s cease and desist request to the video's creator. Lessig questions our social values, when such harmless derivations of copyrighted work result in harsh or punitive consequences. He contrasts the “end of the era of passivity” to the current creative movement in digital media and the corresponding restriction by owners of copyright.

Speaking at the Search Engine Strategies Conference and Expo in Chicago, 2008, Lessig explains that due to our ability to produce infinite and vast numbers of copies, our current copyright laws are now outdated. He recommends creating a new architecture for copyright that functions more like a shared economy, than a motive to protect creators. The sharing economy best serves the public because it neither punishes the creator nor the consumer.

Title A name given to the resource Encoded Archival Description: An Introduction and Overview Subject The topic of the resource Curation Description An account of the resource Daniel Pitti, commonly referred to as the “main technical architect” of the Encoded Archival Description (EAD), explains the rationale for substituting EAD for the bibliographic type of record (MARC) used in libraries. He distinguishes archives and their need for creating a stable and faithful finding aid for the collections (fonds) from libraries and their need for specific item and location descriptions. Unlike library records, archival records must also provide greater detail and contextual information; including the origin or provenance of the item and its order of creation within the collection. The collection is then hierarchically arranged from the fond to the smallest piece (archival object) in which each layer is described according to the EAD format. Moreover, the encoding languages, SGML and XML, enable the EAD to be universally accessible through databases and differing hardware and software platforms. Pitti argues that this standard would enable archives and databases to share and link resources in an unprecedented way and that multiple formats and media could be equally standardized.

Title A name given to the resource Digital Humanities Beyond Representation Subject The topic of the resource Digital Humanities Description An account of the resource In his lecture to the University of Central Florida on November 13, 2006, John Unsworth described two types of scholarship within the digital humanities: representing primary source materials, and building tools to manipulate and analyze these materials. He noted a “new form of humanities computing appears” corresponding with the advancements in digital imaging and recording. Before the digitization and the information age, the representation of the artifact assumed greater emphasis than analyzing the text. As digital archives and collections began expanding and proliferating in the late 20th century, however, scholarship in the field turned towards text mining tools. The editors and designers of digital archives have improved the search functions of their databases and finding aids and continue to develop tools for interpreting data. Vast collections of multimedia artifacts and documentation provide opportunities for investigating intertextual, geographic, and chronological comparisons of the data.

Title A name given to the resource Bringing Preservation to the Forefront: Preservation Initiatives as the University of Central Florida Libraries Description An account of the resource This article addresses the preservation needs of an ever-expanding university. Preserving collections is an expensive effort that necessitates collaboration and ample patience. When preservation is not “a natural part of the institutional culture” (16), implementing a new preservation program requires approval from administration and agreement from all departments of the university. Most important are “clear policy statements” and goals (16). When creating these foundations, all areas of the library must be represented. Success is “dependent on understanding the importance of having a plan and developing a shared vision from the organization” (16). It is necessary to review what other universities are doing and create a list of justifications. UCF also surveyed employees to determine areas of improvement and training needs. They had to consider environmental concerns and lack of personnel. Records had to be updated to meet current standards. Many digital records had to be created to protect originals. Arthur and Dotson write, “Digital preservation is not a passing fad… it should be one of the top priorities” (18).
