Description:

In March 2020 the Canadian Web Archiving Coalition (CWAC) stated: "The deadly flu outbreak of 1918-19 is often called the ‘forgotten pandemic.’ Our responsibility now is to ensure the lessons of COVID-19 are not forgotten. Our collective efforts to capture and preserve the essential online elements of this unprecedented event are critical." (CARL-ABRC). The COVID-19: Vancouver Island, BC (Central & North) Web Archive reflects community experiences and responses to the pandemic in the region served by Vancouver Island University, documenting and supporting diverse aspects of scholarly inquiry, creativity, and community life. The Web Archive is intended to provide a body of information that will support scholarship, creativity, and study. Information rights related to web archiving include considerations of copyright and fair dealing, and of individual and community privacy. The following are among principles and resources that guide web archiving decisions: Ethics of care, for example in VIU Library’s Pledge to our user communities; OCAP® principles, and awareness of relationality and accountability to Indigenous communities, and potential impacts related to web archiving; Good practice and expert advice, emerging and accessed through communities of practice, e.g. the Canadian Web Archiving Coalition (CWAC); and VIU Library, Evolution of Physical Collections: 2017-2021 VIU Library, Special Collections Guidelines (Under review 2020). Web archives are informed by available capture technologies and also by affordances of the content source; not all websites can be successfully crawled or rendered, and quality of archived versions varies. This project is supported by VIU's Special Funding for COVID-19 research projects and carried out in coordination with the University of Victoria’s COVID-19 Collection and the Canadian Web Archiving Coalition.

Description: Sooke Teachers' Association on Twitter: "It's clear that @SD62_Sooke does not value Health and Safety when the H&S Manager refuses to approve a HEPA filter for a classroom with proven air quality issues. How does that fit the Strategic Plan to "develop, expland and implement a culture of wellness?" #StratPlanSham"

Title: [Parent-provided HEPA filter removed from school classroom]

Description: M. Elizabete Costa, Lawyer-Owner Costa Law on Twitter: "@PennyDaflos @BCschoolCovid @sd61schools @sd61_vcpac My son has had Covid. With leftover symptoms. I invested in a HEPA filter and brought it to his classroom. Everyone was happy with it, except the district principal and the principal. This morning, the / Filter was removed from my sons classroom. Now, this is not mitigating risk. This is not objectively fair. And, from the perspective of a parent, completely wrong, negligent, and partisan. When did schools become a mouthpiece for the government? #bcpoli"
