This week I have been digging around in the #InternetArchive looking for digitised Arabic periodicals. With a bit of #Rstats and far too many hours of #XSLT and #TEI/XML spent on identifying titles based on the very patchy metadata provided by uploaders, there are quite some exciting finds:
The API returned 4500+ items for the keywords "جريدة", "مجلة", and "صحيفة", of which I could identify 781 as pertaining to 100 individual Arabic periodicals published before 1930. Links to all of these have been uploaded to #Wikidata, which will increase their visibility to scholars and the interested public.
There are, of course, thousands of items for which I couldn’t programmatically establish a title with sufficient certainty, let alone try and link them to existing records without actually looking at the digital facsimile and reading the information provided on front-pages and mastheads.
Check out https://query-chest.toolforge.org/redirect/wnywBGxzyyiukWWYiIQqi0smeUCu6AggKG4mOME68i3 to see the results.

Bonne journée mondiale de la préservation numérique !
Saviez-vous qu’en 2024 et 2025, l’Université de Victoria et l’Université du Manitoba sont devenues les premières institutions Borealis à faire certifier leurs collections comme étant des dépôts de données fiables par CoreTrustSeal ?
Cette certification signifie que ces collections répondent aux normes les plus élevées de préservation et aux meilleures pratiques en matière de gestion des données, garantissant que ces données seront découvrables et réutilisables à long terme.
Au cours de la dernière année, nous avons travaillé sur le développement d’une suite de documentation CoreTrustSeal pour aider d’autres institutions Borealis à obtenir la certification.Cette suite de documentation est maintenant disponible sur SPOTDocs, le wiki Borealis : https://oculsp.ca/ajqz1

Over the past year, we have been working on developing a CoreTrustSeal Documentation Suite to support other Borealis institutions in pursuing certification.
This documentation suite is now available on SPOTDocs, the Borealis wiki: https://oculsp.ca/ajqz1

Happy World Digital Preservation Day!
As the eresource landscape continues to shift, Scholars Portal is committed to supporting Canadian libraries with long-term preservation and perpetual access to their resources, even after termination of vendor agreement.
Preservation rights for eresources hosted by SP include local load, perpetual access, and transformation rights, allowing us to migrate content to other formats as technology becomes obsolete, extending access long into the future.
We receive independent copies of journal content from publishers, which we then host on servers at the University of Toronto Libraries and preserve in our Trustworthy Digital Repository (TDR).
You can learn more about how SP supports the long-term preservation of eresources in our 2024-2025 Annual Report and in the Spotlight section of our September 2025 Newsletter, contributed by eresource staff at Ontario libraries.
