Assisting Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Workers

[Kristen Whitson]

Hello, all - 

We're passing along a volunteer opportunity that was shared with us by a member of the WiLS board:

Saving Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Online (SUCHO) has asked for fellow librarians and archivists around the world to help combat cyberattacks and misinformation by helping them preserve their digital cultural resources. Read their March 8 press release here. 

In response, librarians, archivists, data scientists, cultural heritage professionals, etc. from Harvard University, Stanford University, Tufts University, Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage, and Indiana University teamed up to create the Saving Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Online project: https://www.sucho.org/

Some experience with web archiving, web archiving tools, and Slack is helpful but not required. 

Thanks,

Kristen
