Web Science and Digital Libraries Research Group

Our certificate and capstone course will be at the intersection of Computer Science, Library and Information Studies, and Cybersecurity. We are happy to have received a 2021 IMLS Laura Bush planning grant award to establish a graduate certificate in web archiving at ODU.  The project and resulting certificate program is a joint effort between the Web Science and Digital Libraries Research Group ( Nelson , Weigle ), the School of Cybersecurity (Wu), Library and Information Studies ( Kimmel ), and the ODU Libraries ( Ritchie ).   The deliverables for this 12 month project will include: 1) an environmental scan documenting the need of industry, university, and government organizations for employees with experience in web archiving, 2) materials for a graduate-level course in the technology, theory, and ethics of web archiving, and 3) a lessons learned report of our experiences working in a multidisciplinary team to deliver graduate
