A Mesage from Brewster Kahle at The Internet Archive
Please email links to sites and pages that should be saved for future research to katrina@archive.org.
We have worked to archive events such as 9/11 and the tsunami with the generous help of volunteers finding and sending in links. We then save these digital works for the long term and create research tools (for example: http://www.loc.gov/minerva/collect/sept11/index.html and http://web.archive.org ). As a library, we provide free access to those wanting to learn from these events-- we can only hope that we learn some lessons from disasters such as these.
Again, please send email to katrina@archive.org with lists of URL's you suggest should be archived relevant to the Katrina Disaster.
We are also looking for a couple of volunteers that can help orchestrate the crawl. If you are interested, please send a note to katrina@archive.org with "volunteer" in the subject line.
Thank you.
