Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore issues and approaches for collection and management of born digital local news. Much local news important documentation of local history is being lost. The fact that a lot of news media is now available digitally presents new opportunities but also new challenges for such preservation. Designmethodologyapproach Several specific bottlenecks for implementing this project are examined. For instance, the size of the problem is estimated by approximating how much local news is generated in one US state. Then the difficulties in capture, storage requirements, selection, access, and sustainability are considered, focusing on difficulties in selection. Finally, a number of business models for handling these challenges are explored. Findings Currently, there is no largescale effort under way to preserve local television and newspaper news stories, and as a result this part of history is being lost. Many practical difficulties to a comprehensive system have been found but there would be value even in a system which was not the ideal. Newspaper web sites and streaming radio stations should be downloaded. The possibility of capturing video from cable distribution points could be explored. Originalityvalue While none of the business models offers an ideal solution for the preservation of local news, especially not for multimedia sources, it is believed that some of them provide partial answers which should be tried.
