GUEST SPEAKER: Ian Milligan, University of Waterloo (Understanding the needs of researchers who want to use web archives as a data set
What are your thoughts on how researchers are using/want to use web archives? How has this informed Warcbase development?
What was your process for determining the best way to access, store and interrogate the data set when you were working with Archive-It?
Is there a training component currently in place at Waterloo for faculty and students who want to start using Warcbase? If so, where is this training/instruction provided - through the library?
What recommendations do you have for people just starting web-archiving programs? More specifically, what parameters/workflows/specifications should new web-archiving programs set in order to optimize usability and access for future researchers?
