The Library Digital Initiative program of the Harvard University Library
has funded a multi year project to develop a curated web site archiving
solution. We seek a Java software developer to work in a 2
person software team to develop the system and explore the capture and
preservation issues surrounding this initiative. We'll be working closely
with archivists and academic staff to define harvesting, preservation and
discovery requirements and build easy to use software tools for capturing
diverse web sites that include women's blogs, web sites related to the
constitutional revision process in Japan, and web sites for Harvard
departments. Over a two year period, we will build a robust, extensible
solution integrated with the Harvard Digital Repository
Service.
If interested in pursuing this exciting project, see the Harvard
University job listing site,
