  The goal of the SISIA is to establish an informal meeting space for members interested or working with Indigenous collections. The meetings are often open dialogue for members to discuss any topic related to Indigenous perspectives, experience, and interests generally but also regarding archive. We are very open to discuss whatever is of interest to you in the present moment on these topics and hope that we can be of support to each other on our varying paths of learning and unlearning both within and external to the archive.

  This beginner-level workshop aims to empower archivists to begin preserving web content using accessible and user-friendly tools. As the collective cultural record moves increasingly online, the issue of long-term preservation of web content is more pressing than ever. This workshop is catered to community archives and other cultural heritage institutions with limited resources looking to start a web archiving project. This workshop will introduce participants to the practice of web archiving and provide guidance to start building web collections on a small scale. It aims to encourage active participation through a mix of hands-on practice, live demonstrations, and discussions. The workshop will cover some helpful concepts and terms in web archiving, provide sample workflows to guide a web archiving project and give participants the opportunity to practice archiving web pages using open-source web archiving tools.

  Instructors: Sarah Lake and Helene Brousseau
