Related scripts for working with Archive-It:
- Metadata Profile - Dublin Core metadata fields to describe archived sites (seeds) and Archive-It collections.

These policies and procedures were initially developed by Adriane Hanson (Digital Stewardship), Brandon Pieczko (Russell Library), and Steve Armour (Hargrett Library) in 2019 and published to GitHub in 2020. They were modified by Adriane Hanson and Sarah Causey (MAGIL) in 2022 when MAGIL adopted Archive-It for archiving Georgia state government websites and online publications.
