Abstract
Digital libraries are called upon to organize, aggregate, and steward born-digital news collections. Rather than continuously building silos of such non-traditional collections, digital libraries are seeking to manage these collections in conjunction with each other in order to provide the most value to scholars. We here present the results of a preliminary study analyzing characteristics of items in two collections of digital news media: television broadcasts and social media coverage. Our findings indicate a number of factors that similar efforts will need to take into consideration when linking digital "news" collections similar to ours.
