IFLANews Media Section <http://www.ifla.org/news-media>

Coined as “history’s first draft,” newspapers support cultural identity 
preservation and representation, even while they document significant 
historic events. Ironically, born-digital news from the early 
21st-century is at risk of loss due to lack of curation and preservation 
infrastructure.  Starting in the early 2000s, both newspapers and 
digital news services have created and continue to create a 
preponderance of data that quickly floats adrift in digital format, 
after it is no longer timely.

This satellite meeting seeks proposals about how different news 
preservation players serve news content creators through digital 
curation and preservation support, with emphasis examining strategies 
toward legal deposit and preservation on local, state, and national 
levels. This meeting particularly seeks proposals that highlight the 
preservation topics below, but related topics are also welcomed:

  * Legal and/or Financial Implications of Born Digital Preservation
  * Differences between U.S. and EU Models of Newspaper Deposit and Crawling
  * Collecting Strategies and Legal Deposit
  * Preservation/Legal Advocacy Efforts on a Local Level
  * New Role of Library as a News Preservation Leader
  * Citizen News/Local News/Commercial News
  * Web 2.0 Commenting
  * Born-Digital, Web-Only News
  * News Preservation Practices
  * Digital Preservation Infrastructure
  * Relationships with Publishers
  * Collecting Strategies in Local and Regional Libraries
