Wikileaks
Archivists, librarians and WikiLeaks
If you ve followed this blog you will know that our first Recordkeeping Roundtable event, in March 2011, was on the subject of WikiLeaks ( After WikiLeaks, is it all over for the Archives? ). At that session we explored, amongst other things, what WikiLeaks cause and method says about the role and nature of archives - and what we as archivists can learn from them, in particular about shifting notions of gatekeeper access to records, building trust with user communities and dissemination and redundancy of information on the Web.
