[Air-L] Fw: Engaging with Web Archives 2020 - Free Virtual Conference

[Michael Kurzmeier]

Hi AoiR community,

Engaging with Web Archives 2020 is the first Web Archiving Conference in Ireland. 

Maynooth University Arts and Humanities Institute are delighted to be hosting the first EWA conference which aims to:

raise awareness for the use of web archives and the archived web for research and education across a broad range of disciplines and professions in the Arts, Humanities, Social Sciences, Political Science, Media Studies, Information Science, Computer Science and more;

foster collaborations between web archiving initiatives, researchers, educators, and IT professionals;

highlight how the development of the internet and the web is intricately linked to the history of the 1990s. 

This is a two-day event with a full conference Program (21&22 September 2020)

We are very excited to have two distinguished keynote speakers at the #EWA20 Virtual conference:

Professor Niels Brügger (Aarhus University, Denmark) 
Professor Jane Winters (School of Advanced Study, University of London, UK)

There is no cost to attend, however, registration is essential, and places are limited.
