Indigenous knowledge can advance sustainable development, and its preservation is of the utmost importance. Indigenous knowledge is mostly present within older generations, and without preservation, it will die with its custodians. African communities rely heavily on indigenous knowledge, which is dynamic and is constantly evolving. A digital tool that can preserve practices relating the knowledge can highlight its dynamic nature. This paper presents a conceptual theoretical model to guide the design of an e-learning system aimed at facilitating the preservation of indigenous knowledge. Data was collected utilizing a literature review. The conceptual theoretical model shows that preserving indigenous knowledge through e-learning would require, among other things, engagement with the relevant knowledge custodians and compliance with necessary legal requirements.

“…Ravenwood et al (2013) identified six organisational areas of concern in the selection and preservation of digital materials in libraries: resources and volume; criteria; policy; legal and ethical issues; roles and responsibility; and user aspects of selection.

Challenging prevailing narratives with Twitter: An #AustraliaDay case study of participation, representation and elimination of voice in an archive

Social Media, specifically a microblogging service such as Twitter, is a public space that has changed how we interact with, exchange, and respond to information in a civil society. It also has the potential to give public voice to minority narratives that are under-represented in the mainstream media, just as grassroots graffiti in public spaces has done over human history. Using a specific case study around an issue in the Australian national discourse around Australia Day, this study contributes new insights towards an understanding of how alternate narratives are expressed and erased in cyberspace, just as graffiti is erased from public view by the authorities. Widely promoted by official sources as a day of festivity and celebration, the Australia Day Your Way initiative actively promotes the use of the hashtag #AustraliaDay to metatag tweets for capture to an annual time capsule stored by the National Museum of Australia. For Australia's indigenous minority though, Australia Day is symbolic of an entirely different narrative, expressed online through the hashtags #InvasionDay and #SurvivalDay. We studied all three hashtags and their intersections on Twitter and also compared this data to what was showcased in the official time capsule. We found that although the alternative voices existed on Twitter, they were excluded from the official time capsule. This has implications for both archives and for future historians studying contemporary events.

“…Koehler's overview of the history of library ethics confirms the existence of an essential tension between the library's mandate to protect as well as to provide access to a collection [41], reflected in many of the profession's dictates, ranging from the nineteenth century's Quincy Plan [42], to the twentieth century's Five Laws of Library Science [43], to today's international initiatives for involving a wider variety of stakeholders in investing in digital preservation initiatives [44].…”

New grounds for ontic trust: Information objects and LIS

The information ethics of Luciano Floridi's well-known Philosophy of Information (PI) project are explored as potential foundations for a deepening sense of stewardship in library and information studies (LIS) practice. The implications of PI's world view of "information objects" as having intrinsic value and resulting moral rights within the evolving "infosphere" are discussed in the context of current professional standards for collection management and preservation. Richard Fyffe's recent critical reconstruction of Floridi's concept of "ontic trust" as it might apply to librarianship as stewardship of the semantic environment is extended to better ground Floridi's conceptualization of the "infosphere" itself.
