“Collaborating across the continents: Documenting War in Ukraine”: “Connecting Libraries and Research on Eastern Europe: Strengthening the Collaboration for Knowledge”, ABDOS Conference 2024
Abstract
This presentation discusses the collaborative efforts to document the ongoing war in Ukraine through web archiving and related initiatives. Dr. Liladhar R. Pendse, Librarian for East European Studies at the University of California-Berkeley, outlines the importance of capturing diverse perspectives on the conflict through systematic web archiving. The project involves collaboration between UC Berkeley and the Bavarian State Library to archive websites, social media, and government documents related to the war from multiple viewpoints, including Ukrainian, Russian, and international sources.
