Much local news \u2013 important documentation of local history \u2013 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.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Design\/methodology\/approach<\/jats:title><jats:p>Several specific bottle\u2010necks 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.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Findings<\/jats:title><jats:p>Currently, there is no large\u2010scale 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.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Originality\/value<\/jats:title><jats:p>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.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/02640470810879527","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,6,14]],"date-time":"2008-06-14T07:04:21Z","timestamp":1213427061000},"page":"387-399","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Preserving digital local news"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"Robert B.","family":"Allen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kirsten A.","family":"Johnson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"key":"key2022032020175554400_b1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Allen, R.B.
