[Air-L] Public Record Under Threat: News and the Archive

[Sharon Ringel]

Dear all,

Please join us for a conference on *Public Record Under Threat: News and
the Archive in the Age of Digital Distribution
<https://www.eventbrite.com/e/public-record-under-threat-news-and-the-archive-in-the-age-of-digital-distribution-tickets-44121553755>*,
hosted by the Tow Center for Digital Journalism
<https://towcenter.org/?mc_cid=4639db7077&mc_eid=%5bUNIQID%5d> and the Brown
Institute for Media Innovation
<https://brown.stanford.edu/?mc_cid=4639db7077&mc_eid=%5bUNIQID%5d> at
Stanford University on April 13 (1-5pm)



Panels will feature journalists, technologists, librarians, and engineers
who will discuss how they are preserving the first draft of history in an
era of newsroom cutbacks, ephemeral social media, and disappearing data.
Learn how newsrooms are handling the digitization of print content and the
preservation of digital-born news. Who makes the decisions? What are the
biggest challenges and how are news organizations solving them? The
conversation will also address the importance of the public record and how
reporters are using and thinking about archives, as well as how their
practices and policies will affect access to content in the future.



Registration is free and can be completed here:
