It is a short review essay of how historians and archivists have been using the web since the '90s (US perspective), to collect personal histories & eye witness accounts following current events & reflecting on the past

one element of Grants Pass is that it’s not just about whether you can enforce anti-camping laws against the homeless. it’s about whether you can enforce those laws **even when you haven’t provided adequate shelter beds**

This article has been in the works for some time, and it articulates how, in the process of scaling the pilot project, we chose to reuse existing Zooniverse tools and infrastructure in creative ways, in service of sustainable development practices, rather than building something from scratch.

I was lucky to get to work with Will on Scribes of the Cairo Geniza, and benefitted deeply from his vast knowledge and infectious enthusiasm for the work we were doing. This is a huge loss for the field. My thoughts are with his family and colleagues and the rest of our SotCG cohort.

Folks smarter than me will point you today to how to *listen* to Steve Albini's impact on the music Gen X grew up with. I want to encourage you to read him in his own words, with "The Problem with Music," a essay he wrote for The Baffler in 1993 warning rising bands about "music industry scum." RIP.

Yes, please realize that this IS policing in the U.S. This isn't "bad apples" or "a glitch." Cops ARE VIOLENCE WORKERS. This is what they are. If you're finally convinced, don't just passively allow 50 to 60% of your municipal budgets to be allocated yearly to violence workers.

I know that it’s dangerous to hold on too tightly to formative political experiences of your youth. But that said: I just can’t get over how much all of the lessons of the post 9/11 era, War on Terror, Iraq and the protests against same are being just entirely excised from collective memory.

So you've enriched collections data by crowdsourcing, machine learning/AI, or both. But does the data end up in a collections management system, or does it sit on a drive somewhere?
