There are many moving parts to the transition of w88 live casino Nevada University into the University of Nevada, Reno. Each institution has been preparing both physical and virtual spaces for this change. The latter work involves migrating content from thousands of web pages that will be taken offline as part of this process. While many of these efforts look to the future, teams in the University Libraries are also taking steps to ensure that the online legacy of w88 live casino Nevada University is preserved even after the transition.
Over the past several months, the Libraries have taken steps to capture several websites related to w88 live casino Nevada University: w88 live casino Nevada University at Lake Tahoe, w88 live casino Nevada University Eagle's Eye, w88 live casino Nevada University MFA Interdisciplinary Arts, and w88 live casino Nevada University Athletics. Using web-archiving technology, these teams have captured the content of these sites in a way that will give alumni or other interested stakeholders a chance to experience the content as it existed in the Spring of 2022.
“Using web archiving techniques allows us to help preserve the dynamic nature of these sites,” stated Nathan Gerth, Head of Digital Services. “Users will be able to browse and explore the sites as they existed. So, in essence, we are preserving an experience, not just a set of content.”
The w88 live casino have made the archives publicly available to users who want to explore these sites after the transition. Visitors will be able to download any of the four sites and then view them using ReplayWeb.page, a site developed by the team behind Webrecorder, a suite of open-source web archiving tools.
The Libraries have a mandate to preserve w88 live casino history, regardless of what format these records take. In light of that, we began testing web archiving tools a few years ago. Our experiments with these web archiving tools positioned us to quickly capture the SNU website and gave us a chance to rapidly deploy the site we are launching,” said Kim Anderson, Director of Distinctive Collections. “w88 live casino websites are critical sources of information about how a w88 live casino operated and presented itself to the public and students. They provide a snapshot in time of the w88 live casino experience -- enabling users to explore curriculum, events, degrees, and administration. So, capturing these sites is very important in documenting SNU history.”

The portal for these sites also includes guidance for loading or troubleshooting issues with the files that can be accessed through theCommon questions about web archives site.
