[Commlist] New book: The Routledge Companion to Transnational Web Archive Studies

/The Routledge Companion to Transnational Web Archive Studies///explores 
the untapped potential of web archives for researching transnational 
digital history and communication. It covers cross- border, cross- 
collection, and cross- institutional examination of web archives on a 
global scale.

This comprehensive collaborative work, emerging from the WARCnet 
research network, presents an exploration of the ways web archive 
research can transcend technological and legal challenges to allow for 
new comparative, transnational studies of the web’s pasts, and of global 
events. By combining interdisciplinary work and fostering collaboration 
between web archivists and researchers, the book provides readers with 
cutting- edge approaches to analyzing digital cultural heritage across 
countries. The book contains concrete examples on how to research 
national web domains through a transnational perspective; provides case 
studies with grounded explorations of the COVID- 19 crisis as a 
distinctly transnational event captured by web archives; offers 
methodological considerations while unpacking techniques and skill sets 
for conducting transnational web archive research; and critically 
engages the politics and power dynamics inherent to web archives as 
institutionalised collections.

/The Routledge Companion to Transnational Web Archive Studies/is an 
essential read for graduate students and scholars from internet and 
media studies, cultural studies, history, and digital humanities. It 
will also appeal to web archiving practitioners, including librarians, 
web curators, and IT developers.
