Using this grant, we will be embarking on a 2 billion page web crawl beginning in July. This will be the largest web crawl we have ever attempted. We are currently seeking url submissions for this historic crawl from libraries and archives as well as other cultural and memory institutions. We especially want international web content from a large variety of countries, geographic regions and language bases. Please help us gather this content! You will need a log in name/password to contribute URLs. Contact aroundtheworld at archive.org for invitations.
