[05:30] As expected, I've gotten hundreds and hundreds of positive reaction to the Atlantic Article [05:30] *** vitzli has joined #archiveteam [05:31] And a return of the relatively small number of professional archivists who just fuckin' HATE me [05:31] I'm fascinated at the tiny group [05:31] What, are you doing it insufficiently good, or... ? [05:31] Oh, bunch of things. [05:31] First of all, I'm a white guy from San Francisco. Three strikes [05:32] Second, I use terms imprecisely. Drives the pedants nuts [05:32] Third, I get the spotlight, what about everyone who doesn't get the spotlight [05:32] Fourth, the use of volunteer labor is going to destroy the professional archivist market and profession [05:32] The downsides of being loud and visible. :) [05:35] Can you imagine how scared, how paranoid, how completely terrible your life and perhaps profession if something like Archive Team and Archive Corps represents a credible, intimidating threat? [05:35] It's very similar to the open source will destroy good software argument. [05:35] Hoarders 2: Unburied Dead [05:35] I'd go with "career" rather than "profession". I highly doubt we're going to kill off professional archivists. [05:36] At a minimum, I don't think the Library of Congress is going under. :) [05:36] :D [05:36] what article are you talking about? Must have overseen it [05:37] (also, seriously, if the profession can get killed off by volunteer labor that easily maybe it should be. Apparently it's not doing that much. :P) [05:38] I don't know... we have a godane [05:40] The mention of "other groups that have been doing this for years or decades" in the first missive did pique my interest -- are there best-practices to be learned from? Actual helpful people among the nattering fray? Allies, resources, waiting tasks? [05:42] SilSte, http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2015/09/introducing-the-archive-corps/403135/ [05:43] there was an volunteer effort to scan books since 2000s in Russia [05:44] Library Genesis includes KoLXo3 aka Kolhoz library which was the largest of those collections (~70DVD), homelab was also a pretty big one [05:45] basically, scantailor is a spiritual remake of a tool (ScanKromsator) that was used to scan books there [05:46] I long ago came to terms that I am the RuPaul of archiving. [05:46] Very popular and recognizable, but functioning mostly as a bridge to help people understand the basic concepts, even if I'm not following all the rules. [05:47] speaking of Kolhoz library, since it is distributed as iso images, may I put them into IA? is it a right place? [05:47] Go ahead [05:49] The answer is always yes, unless it's something *really* sketchy. [05:49] https://www.flickr.com/photos/textfiles/albums/72157655788134114 [05:50] Dem dar boxes [05:50] The original meaning of the word "files", full of the original meaning of the word "text".. [05:54] he's defragmenting actual files [05:55] So if I have a sweet picture of a cat I drew in MS Paint..? [05:57] Hmm. Textpiles.com is available...

I have a big ask of someone willing to help out student loan debtors. We need someone to help us crawl the waybackmachine for all the old webpages for schools like itt tech, Art Institutes, Everest, Phoenix etc. We have found that these schools have published lots of fake statistics over the years and students will be using the archives as part of their court cases against these schools.
