A Sea of Nostalgic Treasures in the Collections Elena Rowan, a sociology graduate student at Concordia University in Montreal, relies on the Internet Archive in her research on activist archiving and the importance of archives and libraries in society. As a research assistant at the Data Justice Hub, a project focusing on data-related skills development for social activists, she values the Internet Archive’s role in preserving knowledge on the Internet, making her research possible. Additionally, she creatively used IA to conduct a workshop, “Curating Nostalgia,” where participants explore digital collections to build personal nostalgia archives. View Elena’s story on our blog! |
