Ethical and legal issues, especially with copyright and authenticity, (including not ‘authenticating’ misinformation by archiving it) raised by all presenters as something that needs to be addressed when web archiving #ShockOfRecord #Archives

Friedel Geeraert from the Belgian Royal Library now talking about archiving the Covid-19 crisis using web archives #ShockOfRecord #Archives @Friedel_Geeraer

Different approaches to archiving Covid19 conspiracy theories: archive a news aggregator (rather than give authority by formally archiving the website) or by excluding from archive and giving reason why, keeping this decision as a record. #ShockOfRecord #Archives
