@Bibliiohraf @jayrosen_nyu Get in touch if you need help finding screenable copies of any of these, @jayrosen_nyu — the @NYULibraries can help! Many titles you’ll find in our video collections (e.g. Spotlight https://t.co/lmdtlaVS6J) our Kanopy streaming database is also 👌🏻 https://t.co/Gw6HQmHpZl

We’re back from vacation and this morning when my daughter and I were making breakfast a cockroach poured into her cereal bowl along with her Cheerios. It crawled around on the table while we screamed and I killed it.

Welcome back to us 😌

The most important twitter poll yet - we need your support - every vote counts!

@mkramer @propublica @Mapbox I think most of these look to be static sites that IA crawlers should do an excellent job grabbing, apart from the Tableau elements, which is one of the issues we’re working on. We don’t have a solution for that yet tho…

[Katy Boss @katy_boss]

We aim to archive @propublica’s award-winning news apps with a server-side, open-source web archiving tool + enable capture of the hundreds of COVID dashboards and @Mapbox sites that aren’t being web archived now

Interactive digital journalism projects and data visualizations—including the COVID tracker maps we've all come to rely on—are at risk of being lost to history as technology changes. Here's how NYU librarians are working to archive this important material: https://t.co/z8EzN962xW

[Katy Boss @katy_boss]

@mkramer @propublica @Mapbox Yes we’ve been running into the Tableau issue too! 😬 A real pain — thank you for sharing this spreadsheet, this is a great I see you’re crawling NYU daily too 👍🏻 this history will be so valuable

[Katy Boss @katy_boss]

@mkramer @webrecorder_io @VickyRampin @remram44 😯 great work I am so glad to hear someone is focused on this!!

[Katy Boss @katy_boss]

Data journalists, digital archivists, and DH scholars: if you have an old dynamic web project that needs archiving or is about to go offline let us know! We might be able to help, and are looking for test cases and partners on the UX work @webrecorder_io @VickyRampin @remram44

[Katy Boss @katy_boss]

Just renewed my ALA membership so that I can vote my butt off for @edrabinski — Drabinski boosters don’t forget to do the same! By Jan 31st!

[Katy Boss @katy_boss]

@kate_angell Yayyyyy, congrats Kate, so happy for you!!

Anyone unconvinced that 2020 was the year data journalism took over?

Check the @nytimes native app.

The @nytgraphics COVID tracker is now a first class button, ranking above all other sections.

[Katy Boss @katy_boss]

@saltyla Thanks Laura!!

[Katy Boss @katy_boss]

And, we're looking for folks to join some UX sessions to test our web archiving tool. If you're a digital archivist interested in saving COVID maps and other dynamic sites, or a DH scholar needing to archive your work, pls get in touch!

@UFCJCLibrarian That is so heartbreaking

[Katy Boss @katy_boss]

@UFCJCLibrarian Makes no sense to me. I'm sorry you're dealing with this April and I hope you and your family stay safe this fall 🤞
