An Interview with LOC's Bill LeFurgyCreated by Matt Pasiewicz (EDUCAUSE) on April 19, 2006
In this 23 minute recording, we'll hear from Bill LeFurgy as he shares some thoughts on the Library of Congress and their National Digital Information Infrastructure and Preservation Program (NDIIPP).
We'll hear a bit about the digtial collections that the Library of Congress and its partners have assembled -- including polling data, coverage of elections and hurrican katrina on the web, and materials from 9/11 (see my interview with Roy Rosenzweig for more on that). We'll also hit on data provenance, demand-side selection/archival, the concept of data provenance, and the role for extrensic motivation for contributing to archival repositories. The Forbes article mentioned in this recording is available here. This interview is provided courtesy of CNI and was recorded at their 2006 Spring Task Force Meeting. The Coalition for Networked Information (CNI) is an organization dedicated to supporting the transformative promise of networked information technology for the advancement of scholarly communication and the enrichment of intellectual productivity.
