Description:
The Brazilian Presidential Transition (2018) Web Archive is a collection built by the Ivy Plus Libraries Confederation and member libraries of the Latin America Libraries of the Northeast Group. Talía Guzman-González (Library of Congress), Sócrates Silva (Columbia / Cornell University Libraries) and Jill Baron (Dartmouth Library) are the project leads, with significant contributions from members of the Seminar on the Acquisition of Latin American Library Materials. The Archive comprises Brazilian government websites in the areas of human rights, the environment, LGBTQ issues, and culture, for the period following the election of Jair Bolsonaro as president of Brazil on October 28, 2018, up to his inauguration on January 1, 2019. The collection targets web content considered to be vulnerable due to the anticipated consolidation or elimination in the aforementioned areas, and represents a snapshot of government content before Bolsonaro took office, with the aim of preserving these important, but potentially ephemeral, documents for researchers and scholars.

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.

Description:
The Historical Representation at American House Museums Web Archive aims to document the changing interpretation and presentation of the experiences of working people and immigrants, the lives of the enslaved, the contributions of women, LGBT individuals, indigenous peoples, and various ethnic groups at historic house museums in the United States. House museums have been a key component of historic preservation in America since the mid 19th century. Until recently, house museums largely interpreted the lives of great
men (and, on rare occasions, women), first and second generation settlers in America, or the work of master architects such as Frank Lloyd Wright or Stanford White. More recently, many house museums have begun changing their focus to include the experiences of underrepresented peoples, including but not limited to the groups mentioned above. Websites have in many cases replaced printed guidebooks in disseminating the social history of these sites. The Historical Representation at American House Museums Web Archive is curated by librarians, library workers, and professors at Columbia University (Andrew S. Dolkart and Chris Sala) and Johns Hopkins University (Holly Tominack), under the auspices of the Ivy Plus Libraries Confederation.

Description:
In the last two years, the Government of India under its ruling Hindu nationalist party, the Bharatiya Janata Party, has enacted the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), and promoted other regulations, such as the National Register of Citizenship (NRC), designated to change the rules for who can and who cannot be or become an Indian citizen, and who can immigrate — for the first time making religion a key criterion. These regulations have sparked communal tensions and fears among India's religious and ethnic minorities. The Indian Citizenship Amendment Act Protest Movements Web Archive documents the widespread social justice movements and anti-CAA organizations to support them, as well as the allied movements mobilizing women and students with them, including groups of freedom fighters, oppressed castes, transgender people, and other marginalized communities. The Archive also contains documentation of the government crackdowns and violent suppression of these protests. The Archive is curated by Aruna Magier (New York University0, Jef Pierce (University of Pennsylvania), and Gary Hausman (Columbia University), under the auspices of the Ivy Plus Libraries Confederation.

Description:
This web archive preserves material on, about, and from the Woman, Life, Freedom movement of Iran, which emerged in the wake of the 2022 police killing of Mahsa Jîna Amini. Her arrest by the morality police, on alleged grounds of non-compliance with the compulsory Hijab Law, ignited a series of protests that began in Kurdistan, spread across all levels of Iranian society, and reached other marginalized regions like Sistan-Baluchistan. This movement garnered international solidarity, with the Iranian diaspora and global activists demanding accountability from the Iranian government. Despite the government's attempts to violently suppress dissent, the movement persists into 2023. This archive curates a collection of videos, photographs, art, music, petitions, statements, and diverse forms of expression that have emerged from this movement, showcasing both government crackdowns and the resilience and determination of the Iranian people in their pursuit of meaningful change. The majority of the web resources were collected between October 2022 and May 2023. The Woman, Life, Freedom Movement of Iran Web Archive is an initiative developed by librarians under the auspices of the Ivy Plus Libraries Confederation. Nominate sites for inclusion in the Archive using this form.
