Abstract

Along with technological developments, today's archival revolution has developed the concept of born-digital. This is the era in which archives have been created that are not printed on paper. Archives are also unwittingly created through daily virtual activities. This can be observed through the phenomenon of social media usage, which today most youths have, depending on its function. This paper aims to analyse the born-digital archival concept that occurs in relation to youth behaviour that has been embedded in the digital age. This paper used the qualitative approach; the data in this paper was obtained through literature studies and observations of social phenomena in Indonesia. The data obtained was collected, analysed, interpreted, and presented descriptively. The results of the paper show that the youth’s habits and dependence on social media today unconsciously leaves a record and creates digital-archives, namely through online storage, making online documents, arranging documents by folders and through the use of social media included photo archives, documents, posts archive etc. The need for recognition and identity seeking has become the main factor of the youth’s dependence on social media that also forms the born-digital archives.
