How are we preserving archives in the digital age? The Internet Archive is a tremendous resource for preservation. What are they preserving? How? What is getting missed?
Jason Scott has been on a mission lately to recapture, preserve and provide access to thousands of old computer programs — games and more. He'll be a guest to talk about the Internet Archive, digital preservation, and more.
