International Internet Preservation Consortium Announces 2008 Member Profile Survey Results

From the news release:

The International Internet Preservation Consortium (IIPC) announces its first comprehensive survey of members and their web preservation activities.

In 2008, a survey was developed to gather information about the members of the International Internet Preservation Consortium: their web preservation program's scope, staff, tools, and policies that affect their activities. The IIPC Member Profile Survey opened to members on March 7, 2008, with preliminary results presented at an April 2008 General Assembly meeting in Canberra, Australia.

A summary of survey results has been published for a wider web archiving and digital library community presents answers to portions of the original survey, and is available on the IIPC website. The survey results cover topics such as what type of institutions belong to the IIPC and the maturity of their web archiving programs, the types of staff who are working on web archiving in their institutions. The survey asked questions about the scope of IIPC members' web archives, whether they publish selection guidelines, and what metrics they use to report on the archiving activities. The survey results also reports on what crawlers and curator tools are being used by IIPC members, whether they provide access and description for research use, and legal issues and policies related to copyright.

Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

A lot of the talk around social media in the last year has been around information overload. Social media has provided us with new and exciting ways to create content.

Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

What if you had to sort through 3.5 million articles and social media posts a day and try to pull out the most relevant items for your organisation? What if you then had to cobble it all together into something readable for your top groups and executives in your organisation?
