- Abstract
- "'A serious advance in state-of-the-art research.' Marisa Duarte, author of Network Sovereignty: Building the Internet across Indian Country An essential contribution to Internet activism and a must-read for educators, theorists, and users of technology, A Digital Bundle demonstrates the great potential for digital technology to contribute to Indigenous self-determination, resurgence, revitalization, and the rebuilding of nations. Wemigwans redefines online Indigenous Knowledges as "digital bundles," grounding online projects within Indigenous traditional paradigms. She elevates both cultural protocol and responsibilities within this designation, representing new possibilities for both the Internet and Indigenous communities. Her own website was produced and created within Indigenous community cultural protocols, showing the reader a clear example of how one can respectfully follow Indigenous practices and apply Indigenous ethics in the construction of a digital site."-- Provided by publisher.

- Abstract
- While many people believe that what is on the Internet will be around forever, warnings of an impending "digital dark age" - where records of the recent past become completely lost or inaccessible-appear with regular frequency in the popular press. It's as if we need a systme to safeguard our digital records for future scholars and researchers. Digital preservation experts, however, suggest that ensuring long-term access to digital information is not that straightforward; it is a complex issue with a significant ethical dimension. It is a vocation. In this timely book, librarian Trevor Owens establishes a baseline for practice in this field. He synthesizes work on the history of preservation in a range of areas (archives, manuscripts, recorded sound, etc.) and sets that history in dialogue with work in new media studies, platform studies, and media archeology. Owens also builds from this theoretical framework and maps out a more deliberate and intentional approach to digital preservation.
