Summary Report of the Needs Assessment
Date: June 18, 2006
Creator: Murray, Kathleen & Hsieh, Inga K.
Description: This report is part of the Web-at-Risk project. The Web-at-Risk project is one of eight digital preservation projects funded in 2004 by the Library of Congress. This 3-year collaborative effort of the California Digital Library, the University of North Texas (UNT), and New York University is developing a Web Archiving Service that will enable the project's curators to build, store, and manage collections of web-published materials in repositories located at the three project partner sites. The content will be collected largely from US federal and state government agency web sites, but will also include web-published political policy documents, campaign literature, and information concerning political movements and labor unions. This report summarizes the findings from these assessment activities. A brief description of data collection and analysis activities is provided in Appendix A. Individual reports for each assessment activity are also available. The web locations for these are listed in Appendix B.

Web Collection Plan Overview: Considerations for Project Curators
Date: August 24, 2006
Creator: Murray, Kathleen & Hsieh, Inga K.
Description: This report is part of the Web-at-Risk project. The guidelines in this document are intended to assist the Web-at-Risk's project's curators in developing plans for the collections they will create using the project's Web Archiving Service (WAS). A web collection typically consists of a group of web-sites related by a common subject, theme, or event. Librarians will notice that some familiar concepts and practices from collection planning for print materials easily transfer to collection planning for web-published materials while some new concepts and unfamiliar practices are introduced. To effectively manage collections of web-published materials, it is good practice to either create new plans or modify existing collection plans to address these concepts and practices.
