- Abstract
This study looks at the current crisis in born-digital newspaper archiving. The researchers assess limitations of prevailing practices and outlines the issues faced by archivists around the globe as they try to find a means to preserve news sites. Then, the researchers turn to Canada as a case study illustrating the current impasse. Canadian archivists face both exemplary challenges and particular ones, due to the nature of the Canadian media industry and the Canadian national library system. These particularities make it especially difficult to imagine a comprehensive Canadian program in born-digital archiving.
