This chapter analyzes the COVID-19 web collections of Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums (GLAM) across Europe. As the pandemic reshaped the digital landscape, these institutions have worked to archive web content from this unprecedented event. The study explores European GLAM web archiving efforts, focusing on the scope, methods, and challenges of curating COVID-19 content. It features a comparative analysis that highlights similarities and differences in collection strategies, emphasizing the implications for future digital preservation and access to pandemic-related content. This research offers insights valuable to information professionals and researchers studying the role of GLAM institutions in preserving key contemporary historical moments.
