The National Library of Israel has launched a project to collect and preserve digital documentation of the October 7 Hamas massacre on Israel's southern border. The goal is to create a large, authoritative database encompassing evidence, documentation, media coverage, and outreach activities for the benefit of Jewish communal memory and historical research. The project is a collaborative effort with other institutions and collection efforts, and aims to serve as a central repository for all existing documentation of the events. The digital nature of the documentation highlights the challenges of archiving in the digital age.
