Eastern Europe and Former Soviet Union

Archived since: Nov, 2018

Description:

The Eastern Europe and Former Soviet Union Web Archive is an initiative developed by librarians at Columbia, Princeton, Yale, and New York Universities, and the New York Public Library, in partnership (as the Ivy Plus Libraries Confederation), with Brown University, the University of Chicago, Cornell University, Dartmouth University, Duke University, Harvard University, Johns Hopkins University, and the University of Pennsylvania. The collection is curated by Thomas Keenan (Princeton), Robert Davis (Columbia), Anna Arays (Yale), Erik Zitser (Duke), Alla Roylance (New York University), and Bogdan Horbal (New York Public Library). The Archive represents an effort to preserve research-valuable web content from Eastern Europe and the territories of the Former Soviet Union by a group of research librarians responsible for that part of the world. The countries of the region in recent years have been publishing a wide variety of websites likely to be of value to contemporary and future humanities, social science, and history projects, and this Archive has been established as an attempt to identify, capture, and preserve this material. The thematic and generic scope of the archive is deliberately broad, and includes websites published by political parties, non-governmental organizations and activist groups, artists and cultural collectives, and historians, philosophers, and other intellectuals. Recommend a website for inclusion.

LGBTQ+ Communities of the Former Soviet Union & Eastern Europe

Archived since: Aug, 2022

Description:

The LGBTQ+ Communities of the Former Soviet Union & Eastern Europe Web Archive is an initiative developed by librarians at Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Duke, Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, Yale, and the University of Chicago, in partnership (as the Ivy Plus Libraries Confederation) with New York University, the New York Public Library, and Library of University of California Berkeley. The collection archives a broad range of websites maintained by and for the benefit of LGBTQ+ communities in the independent countries of the Former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. These websites document news, events, and issues within these diverse communities, and often provide helpful information about where to seek health, legal, and other assistance in their countries of origin. The collection provides a crucial gathering point for archiving such resources, for the benefit of researchers present and future, and of course for the communities themselves both in the homelands and the diaspora. The curators for this collection are: Anna Arays (Yale), Megan Browndorf (University of Chicago), Robert H. Davis Jr. (Columbia/Cornell), John C. DeSantis (Dartmouth), Bogdan Horbal (NYPL), Thomas Keenan (Princeton), Margarita Nafpaktitis (Stanford), Liladhar Pendse (University of California Berkeley), Anna Rakityanskaya (Harvard), Alla Roylance (NYU), and Erik Zitser (Duke).
