The Complete Guide to Personal Digital Archiving

Marshall (director of research services, Univ. of California, Riverside) and 23 information professionals (librarians, archivists, doctorates, digital curators, and others) offer a "grassroots" exploration of personal digital archiving (PDA), or the preservation of content such as emails, social media, photos, and film. Chapters discuss how to archive different materials, artists' personal archives, the ethical implications of PDA, and more. Though not exhaustive, this is a well-organized, user-friendly, conversation-sparking primer for interested readers, and the research will appeal to LIS scholars. The book is similar in coverage to Carl Lee's I, Digital: Personal Collections in the Digital Era (which Marshall also cites). Verdict A strong compilation for those looking for an introduction to the subject.-Hope Hills, San José State Univ., CA © Copyright 2018.
