Whether you care about preserving history or just want to see what Apple’s homepage looked like 10 years ago, the Internet Archive is an invaluable resource that’s easy to take for granted. A new project launching today pulls back the curtain on one of its lesser-seen efforts, revealing the real human work behind preserving public records for the digital age.
The Internet Archive has started livestreaming its microfiche digitization center on YouTube, offering a real-time look at how fragile film cards are transformed into searchable public documents. This work is part of Democracy’s Library, a global initiative to digitize and share millions of government records.
