  • Resumen

  • Do you ever feel like you're constantly hitting delete?

    Archival curator Kimberly Springer does – especially when it comes to the pressure to digitize everything! But what happens when we run out of storage space? Who gets to decide what stays and what goes?

    This episode of Pop Records dives deep into the digital dilemma facing archives today.

    Our guest, Paul Conway, Associate Professor Emeritus of Information Studies, joins Kimberly to explore:

    • The risks and rewards of digitization
    • The ethical considerations of putting archival materials online
    • How to preserve cultural heritage in the digital age
    • Lessons from folk music's ethos of "gifting" for a more expansive approach to access

    Feeling overwhelmed by the "delete key of the future"? Tune in for a hopeful discussion about evolving archives and keeping our cultural treasures alive!

    Plus, a healthy dose of the heebee-jeebies as we confront The Ghost of Information Loss!
