Other articles focus on the Birth of the Dot Com Era, Preserving Digital Public Television, Web-at-Risk, Portico and the ECHO DEPository.
Two geospatial projects, the North Carolina Geospatial Data Archiving Project and the National Geospatial Digital Archive are outlined.
Articles that look into issues that involve multiple projects include "NDIIPP Partner Perspectives on Economic Sustainability" and "NDIIPP Models for Mass Data Transmission and Storage." Preservation tools and services developed by the University of Maryland ADAPT project and Stanford University LOCKSS are also detailed.
