The Internet Archive recently announced a major national expansion of their Community Webs program providing infrastructure, services, and training to public librarians, to archive local history as documented on the web. They now invite public libraries in the U.S. and cultural heritage organizations in U.S. territories to apply to join the Community Webs program. Participants in the program receive free web archiving and technical services, education, professional development, and funding to build community history web archives, especially collections documenting the lives of patrons and communities traditionally under-represented in the historical record.
