Wayback Machine Instructions Revitalizing Old Links You will need: An Internet connection The URL of an article or other content formerly posted on a Phoenix Media Group website Step 1: Copy the old URL of your selected content. Step 2: Navigate to the WayBack Machine: https://archive.org/web Step 3: Input the copied URL of your content into the search box on the Wayback Machine home page. Hit Enter or click “Browse History”. Step 4: The WayBack Machine will retrieve a page that displays the original URL of your content, the number of times that content has been captured by the WayBack Machine, and a calendar. If you would like to access the most recently captured version of the content, click the most recent “snapshot” date on the calendar (dates on which the content was captured are marked with blue circles). If the content has been edited or changed and you would like to access an older saved version, navigate through the calendar to your desired “snapshot” date. Select the most recent save date to view the most recently saved Select the year, then version of the month and date to view content. an older version of the content. Black bars indicate years in which the content was captured. Step 5: The WayBack Machine will redirect you to the preserved snapshot of the page from the date you selected. Please note that some original content, such as advertisements, JavaScript or Flash videos, may not be saved. This URL directs to the saved version of the material; replace any outdated links to the content with this URL. Step 6: Select the URL displayed in your browser’s address bar. You will notice that the new URL begins with https://web.archive.org/; this URL will now direct to a stable, saved version of the content stored in the Internet Archive. Replace any outdated links to your Phoenix Media Group content with the URL generated by the WayBack Machine to ensure that your content remains reachable. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Archives & Special Collections Staff for further assistance..

  • Web Archiving Supplementary Guidelines
    LIBRARY OF CONGRESS COLLECTIONS POLICY STATEMENTS SUPPLEMENTARY GUIDELINES Web Archiving Contents I. Scope II. Current Practice III. Research Strengths IV. Collecting Policy I. Scope The Library's traditional functions of acquiring, cataloging, preserving and serving collection materials of historical importance to Congress and the American people extend to digital materials, including web sites. The Library acquires and makes permanently accessible born digital works that are playing an increasingly important role in the intellectual, commercial and creative life of the United States. Given the vast size and growing comprehensiveness of the Internet, as well as the short life‐span of much of its content, the Library must: (1) define the scope and priorities for its web collecting, and (2) develop partnerships and cooperative relationships required to continue fulfilling its vital historic mission in order to supplement the Library’s capacity. The contents of a web site may range from ephemeral social media content to digital versions of formal publications that are also available in print. Web archiving preserves as much of the web‐based user experience as technologically possible in order to provide future users accurate snapshots of what particular organizations and individuals presented on the archived sites at particular moments in time, including how the intellectual content (such as text) is framed by the web site implementation. The guidelines in this document apply to the Library’s effort to acquire web sites and related content via harvesting in‐house, through contract services and purchase. It also covers collaborative web archiving efforts with external groups, such as the International Internet Preservation Consortium (IIPC).

    Web Archiving and You Web Archiving and Us Amy Wickner University of Maryland Libraries Code4Lib 2018 Slides & Resources: https://osf.io/ex6ny/ Hello, thank you for this opportunity to talk about web archives and archiving. This talk is about what stakes the code4lib community might have in documenting particular experiences of the live web. In addition to slides, I’m leading with a list of material, tools, and trainings I read and relied on in putting this talk together. Despite the limited scope of the talk, I hope you’ll each find something of personal relevance to pursue further. “ the process of collecting portions of the World Wide Web, preserving the collections in an archival format, and then serving the archives for access and use International Internet Preservation Coalition To begin, here’s how the International Internet Preservation Consortium or IIPC defines web archiving. Let’s break this down a little. “Collecting portions” means not collecting everything: there’s generally a process of selection. “Archival format” implies that long-term preservation and stewardship are the goals of collecting material from the web. And “serving the archives for access and use” implies a stewarding entity conceptually separate from the bodies of creators and users of archives. It also implies that there is no web archiving without access and use. As we go along, we’ll see examples that both reinforce and trouble these assumptions. A point of clarity about wording: when I say for example “critique,” “question,” or “trouble” as a verb, I mean inquiry rather than judgement or condemnation. we are collectors So, preambles mostly over.

Gelfand: Web Archives for the Analog Archivist Web Archives for the Analog Archivist: Using Webpages Archived by the Internet Archive to Improve Processing and Description Aleksandr Gelfand ABSTRACT Twenty years ago the Internet Archive was founded with the wide-ranging mission of providing universal access to all knowledge. In the two decades since, that organization has captured and made accessible over 150 billion websites. By incorporating the use of Internet Archive's Wayback Machine into their workflows, archivists working primarily with analog records may enhance their ability in such tasks as the construction of a processing plan, the creation of more accurate historical descriptions for finding aids, and potentially be able to provide better reference services to their patrons.

Full citation: Davis, R. “The Future of Web Citation Practices (Internet Connection Column).” Behavioral & Social Sciences Librarian 35.3 (2016): 128-134. Web. Internet Connection The Future of Web Citation Practices Robin Camille Davis Abstract: Citing webpages has been a common practice in scholarly publications for nearly two decades as the Web evolved into a major information source. But over the years, more and more bibliographies have suffered from “reference rot”: cited URLs are broken links or point to a page that no longer contains the content the author originally cited. In this column, I look at several studies showing how reference rot has affected different academic disciplines. I also examine citation styles’ approach to citing web sources. I then turn to emerging web citation practices: Perma, a “freemium” web archiving service specifically for citation; and the Internet Archive, the largest web archive. Introduction There’s a new twist on an old proverb: You cannot step in the same Web twice.

    University of South Florida Scholar Commons School of Information Faculty Publications School of Information 3-2012 Functionalities of Web Archives Authors: Jinfang Niu The functionalities that are important to the users of web archives range from basic searching and browsing to advanced personalized and customized services, data mining, and website reconstruction. The uthora examined ten of the most established English language web archives to determine which functionalities each of the archives supported, and how they compared. A functionality checklist was designed, based on use cases created by the International Internet Preservation Consortium (IIPC), and the findings of two related user studies. The functionality review was conducted, along with a comprehensive literature review of web archiving methods, in preparation for the development of a web archiving course for Library and Information School students. This paper describes the functionalities used in the checklist, the extent to which those functionalities are implemented by the various archives, and discusses the author's findings.

  • Reference Rot: an Emerging Threat to Transparency in Political Science
    The Profession ......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Reference Rot: An Emerging Threat to Transparency in Political Science Aaron L. Gertler, Independent Scholar John G. Bullock, University of Texas at Austin ABSTRACT Transparency of research is a large concern in political science, and the practice of publishing links to datasets and other online resources is one of the main methods by which political scientists promote transparency. But the method cannot work if the links don’t, and very often, they don’t. We show that most of the URLs ever published in the American Political Science Review no longer work as intended. The problem is severe in recent as well as in older articles; for example, more than one-fourth of links published in the APSR in 2013 were broken by the end of 2014. We conclude that “reference rot” limits the transparency and reproducibility of political science research. We also describe practices that scholars can adopt to combat the problem: when possible, they should archive data in trustworthy repositories, use links that incorporate persistent digital identifiers, and create archival versions of the webpages to which they link. he past decade has given rise to unprecedented con- repositories, use links that incorporate persistent digital identifi-

  • Web Archiving Methods and Collection Guidelines Purpose
    Web Archiving Methods and Collection Guidelines Purpose: The University of Texas at San Antonio Special Collections began partnering with the Internet Archive's Archive-It web archiving service in September of 2009 to preserve web content that is of enduring value to both South Texas and UTSA. Archive-It allows our staff to capture relevant web content and ensure its long-term access through the Internet Archive's global web archive, the Wayback Machine. The Archive-It service selectively crawls websites, taking a snapshot of the page, and storing a copy in the Internet Archive. The archived web pages are then made publicly accessible on UTSA Special Collection’s Archive-It partner page. Method: UTSA Special Collections staff: Identify a topic/subject/theme for a collection. Select relevant, specific websites to crawl Administer mechanics of crawls and add descriptions (metadata). Determine frequency of content changes/updates and set frequency of crawl accordingly (weekly, monthly, annually). Types of Web Content Collected: Official University of Texas at San Antonio websites University-affiliated websites (including organization websites, Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, etc.) Websites relevant to Texas and the Southwest (Border Studies, Gender Studies, South Texas and San Antonio History) Web pages (HTML, CSS, and embedded content such as images, video, and PDFs) Types of Web Content Generally Not Collected: Websites created by individual students Password protected sites Databases Calendars Public websites that have robots.txt exclusion requests Types of Web Content that may not be adequately captured: JavaScript-based content YouTube videos Streaming audio/video Copyright: UTSA does not claim copyright to any of the materials within the archive.
