I do #data and #digitalpreservation things at the GESIS Data Archive.

Research is all over the place, including digital preservation of social science data and how to make social science and archival practices more inclusive for trans* and nonbinary folks. I have also started dabbling in Python.

Here is a new, interesting @GESIS paper by my team colleague Andrea Lengerer on the problem of identifying same-sex partnerships in the microcensus https://www.ssoar.info/ssoar/handle/document/102224 #Mikrozensus

New Privacy Guides article 🌈🔒
by me:

Data privacy is important for everyone.

But for some marginalized groups,
data privacy is indispensable for social connection, access to information, and physical safety.

For Pride month this year,
we are happy to present you the first article of our series discussing topics at the intersection of data privacy and LGBTQ+ experiences.

Stay safe 🔒
Stay connected ✨
And Happy Pride!

The Importance of Data Privacy For The Queer Community

Data privacy is important for everyone. But for some marginalized populations, data privacy is indispensable for social connection, access to information, and physical safety. For Pride month, we discuss topics at the intersection of data privacy and experiences specific to the LGBTQ+ community.

What happens when public data infrastructures aren’t safe?

This is the question that Laura Rothfritz from our research group at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin explores in her dissertation project.

Her research focuses on #DataRescue initiatives in the U.S. in response to the Trump administration.

Links to archived versions of every CDC.gov page available pre-purge (Part 1 of 15)

Note: All 15 pages can be found here. As horrific as it is that the Trump/Musk Administration is purging data from federal websites, it's good to know that the Internet Archive has been archiving much of it. However, in addition to the Archive not being able to mirror everything, there's also the problem of not always knowing what pages have been purged in the first place. With that in mind, I present a full list of and links to the archived versions of all ~7,200 individual HTML pages which were available at CDC.gov as of January 27, 2025. Since the full list is so unwieldy, I've broken it into 15 pages. The links are in alphabetical order by URL hierarchy. Working on the other pages today.

Last day of the #eosceden #eoscfidelis kick-off meeting about to start. EDEN stands for „Enhancing Digital preservation strategies at European and National level“ and I’m really exciting about leading WP1 „Data & Process Framework for Long-Term Digital Preservation“ in the project. Other partners besides @tibhannover are CSC, KU Leuven, DANS, UK Data Service, Arkivum, OPF, CODATA, Arctic University Norway, DKRZ, Pangea, SURF, CERN, PremoTec and SiB
