EOT HARVEST ENLISTS LIBRARIANS, STUDENTS

摘要

In preparation for the January 20, 2017, presidential inauguration, libraries, institutions, and citizens are joining forces to identify federal government websites to be captured and saved in the End of Term (EOT) Web Archive. The archive currently holds government web content from the administration changes of 2008 and 2012 and in July resumed collection efforts for EOT 2016. Government document and subject experts have been joined by librarians, academics, researchers, educators and students, and other volunteers to select URLs that are then submitted for inclusion in the EOT archive. Those that are in-scope and not duplicates are assigned a weighted score by project specialists and given a priority level for web crawling.
