For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource 2020 Coronavirus Pandemic Description An account of the resource MHGS has started to archive materials related to the coronavirus pandemic in Sedgwick County. Here are my thoughts on how this will work: Scope Strictly, ruthlessly focused on Sedgwick County.  Even this is probably too big, but we'll see. Materials Newspaper -- I'm going to assume that the Wichita Eagle digital archive will be available in the future, and will not attempt to save Eagle articles Facebook -- I'm only preserving things that relate directly to Sedgwick County (like ad images for special takeout menus). Although it might be fascinating for future researchers, I don't see any realistic way to preserve things like the comments on a post. Radio and TV -- I don't know what to do about these.  In many cases, they are either reporting on the same things the paper is, or the story is based on an underlying source, like a press release, which I have been able to find and archive.  I am open to ideas here! Websites -- This is where I'm getting the bulk of my material so far.  Many organizations have created COVID-19 pages, and I will be taking periodic snapshots of these, as well as downloading any relevant supporting documents. Photographs -- We need more images!  I'd like pictures of interesting signs, people, and places that show the impact of the pandemic or the stay-at-home order. Process I am generating a list of bookmarked websites as I discover new pages. At least once per week, I return to each bookmarked website to see if anything has changed. As to the dates on items -- the date on a website item is the date I looked at it, and not necessarily the date it changed. The date on, say, a press release, is the date on the release, not the date I found it. In general, if something has a date, I use it, otherwise, I use the date on which I archived it. Formats Webpages -- I am using Chrome's "Print to PDF" to create PDF files from individual web pages.  I investigated fancier web archiving techniques, but decided on the fast and simple approach, both to let me work quickly now, and also to simplify future archive maintenance and access.  These PDFs don't preserve the exact layout of a website, but they do get all the text and most of the images (those carousel things where several images rotate automatically don't get captured.) Video -- I've found a little program that enables me to download YouTube and Facebook videos, so I am cautiously beginning to add those.  They are real space hogs, so I'm trying to be judicious.  The funny one from Cowtown was a no-brainer, of course. Documents -- So far, all the documents I've found are either PDF or DOCX, so I'm keeping them in their original format.  If something odd comes up, I'll try to convert to PDF. Images -- As with documents, I'm keeping these in their original formats. Negative Results I've been collecting both passively, grabbing things as they get mentioned, and actively, searching for Wichita's major employers, retailers, churches, suburbs, etc. If I find something, I add it to the archive. I can't, however, add things to the archive that I don't find. So, here's a list of places I looked, but didn't find anything specific to both Sedgwick County and the Coronavirus. This, of course, doesn't mean they didn't do or publish anything, just that I didn't find it through a public website. Cessna, for example, probably has an employees-only site I couldn't access. LDS Church Jehovah's Witness Church Cessna Availability Currently, only the photographs in the archive are publicly available. I don't want there to be any chance that someone doing a Google search for, say,  information from the Wichita Public Schools, might accidentally land on one of our archived web pages and miss the latest information on their page.  Once the pandemic has passed, we can open the archive for research.

Negative Results I've been collecting both passively, grabbing things as they get mentioned, and actively, searching for Wichita's major employers, retailers, churches, suburbs, etc. If I find something, I add it to the archive. I can't, however, add things to the archive that I don't find. So, here's a list of places I looked, but didn't find anything specific to both Sedgwick County and the Coronavirus. This, of course, doesn't mean they didn't do or publish anything, just that I didn't find it through a public website. Cessna, for example, probably has an employees-only site I couldn't access. LDS Church Jehovah's Witness Church Cessna Availability Currently, only the photographs in the archive are publicly available. I don't want there to be any chance that someone doing a Google search for, say,  information from the Wichita Public Schools, might accidentally land on one of our archived web pages and miss the latest information on their page.  Once the pandemic has passed, we can open the archive for research.

Title A name given to the resource 2020 Coronavirus Pandemic Description An account of the resource MHGS has started to archive materials related to the coronavirus pandemic in Sedgwick County. Here are my thoughts on how this will work: Scope Strictly, ruthlessly focused on Sedgwick County.  Even this is probably too big, but we'll see. Materials Newspaper -- I'm going to assume that the Wichita Eagle digital archive will be available in the future, and will not attempt to save Eagle articles Facebook -- I'm only preserving things that relate directly to Sedgwick County (like ad images for special takeout menus). Although it might be fascinating for future researchers, I don't see any realistic way to preserve things like the comments on a post. Radio and TV -- I don't know what to do about these.  In many cases, they are either reporting on the same things the paper is, or the story is based on an underlying source, like a press release, which I have been able to find and archive.  I am open to ideas here! Websites -- This is where I'm getting the bulk of my material so far.  Many organizations have created COVID-19 pages, and I will be taking periodic snapshots of these, as well as downloading any relevant supporting documents. Photographs -- We need more images!  I'd like pictures of interesting signs, people, and places that show the impact of the pandemic or the stay-at-home order. Process I am generating a list of bookmarked websites as I discover new pages. At least once per week, I return to each bookmarked website to see if anything has changed. As to the dates on items -- the date on a website item is the date I looked at it, and not necessarily the date it changed. The date on, say, a press release, is the date on the release, not the date I found it. In general, if something has a date, I use it, otherwise, I use the date on which I archived it. Formats Webpages -- I am using Chrome's "Print to PDF" to create PDF files from individual web pages.  I investigated fancier web archiving techniques, but decided on the fast and simple approach, both to let me work quickly now, and also to simplify future archive maintenance and access.  These PDFs don't preserve the exact layout of a website, but they do get all the text and most of the images (those carousel things where several images rotate automatically don't get captured.) Video -- I've found a little program that enables me to download YouTube and Facebook videos, so I am cautiously beginning to add those.  They are real space hogs, so I'm trying to be judicious.  The funny one from Cowtown was a no-brainer, of course. Documents -- So far, all the documents I've found are either PDF or DOCX, so I'm keeping them in their original format.  If something odd comes up, I'll try to convert to PDF. Images -- As with documents, I'm keeping these in their original formats.
