The Internet Archive has backed up Aruba's cultural heritage

I adore the Internet Archive and I think a few of you know this because you sent me a link to this story on Wired about them "backing up" an entire country. The IA has worked with the Aruba government to host a digitised version of its "National Library, National Archives, and other institutions including an archaeology museum and the University of Aruba". Those institutions provided the content and digitisation work, while the IA provided software and expertise that was beyond the small island nation's capability. You can check it out in the Aruba Collection. God bless the Internet Archive for providing a haven on the internet for this kinda stuff.
