[Libs-Or] Grants to build community history web archives available

[Arlene Weible]

Internet Archive is offering $25,000 in web archiving services to each library, plus training and travel grants to public librarians.

Internet Archive is currently offering grants to public libraries and librarians as part of a new program to build community history web archives. This program is designed to support public librarians in developing expertise in creating collections of historically valuable web materials that document their local communities. The project, Community Webs: Empowering Public Librarians to Create Community History Web Archives, is funded by the IMLS as part of a Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian grant.
