Election web collections by the BnF

As part of its heritage mission of [legal deposit of the internet](https://www.bnf.fr/fr/centre-d-aide/depot-legal-des-sites-web-mode-demploi), the Bibliothèque nationale de France regularly collects the French political web. Since 2002, and at each poll, are archived sites of the State and local authorities, websites of parties and candidates in the campaign, blogs, online press, public activity on social networks. It is about documenting the development and diversity of political life and online citizen debate. This work is being carried out with an increasing number of legal deposit libraries in the region. Archived sites are [accessible](https://www.bnf.fr/fr/archives-de-linternet) by researchers in the BnF reading rooms. Their list is proposed here by ballot. You will find the URLs of the sites, their description (linked parties, geographical level, typology used for selection, keywords attached), the technical parameters of collection (depth, frequency of passage of robots, history of the URL collected). The BnF makes this data freely available to you provided you mention the source. The BnF also carries out [thematic collections of the web](https://www.data.gouv.fr/fr/admin/dataset/5a7c6d10c751df4dfc94dbd2).
