This evening my library did a drop-in “make your own tea blend” program (proving info, herbs, and supplies for making up to 10 custom tea bags to take home) & it seemed popular!

The Internet Archive itself has been subject to legal and DDOS attacks in the past year, so it's also a risk to rely on it solely. However, it's hard to download WARCs (web archive files) from the Wayback Machine for offline or backup storage. (5/?)

You are probably familiar with the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine at archive.org. A quick and easy way to save single web pages that may be at risk is to use the "Save Page Now" button. This will save that single, time-stamped page in the Wayback Machine. (4/?)

If you're not sure how to help, check out the Contribute page at eotarchive.org. One big need is for help surfacing deep links, web apps, and databases that are hard to capture using web archiving tools. (3/?)

The current loss of access to information that we are seeing is very concerning, but changes to websites are normal when an administration changes. Since 2008, the End of Term Web Archive (eotarchive.org‬) has been a project to collaboratively archive federal domains. (2/?)
