Endangered Data Week: Feb 25 - Mar 1

The amount of data churning around on the Internet has grow exponentially over the years.  With that much data to keep track of, it seems likely that some of it is going to be lost, unintentionally or otherwise.  But efforts are underway to preserve and protect it.

Endangered Data Week is a collaborative effort coordinated across campuses, nonprofits, libraries, citizen science initiatives, and cultural heritage institutions, to shed light on public datasets that are in danger of being deleted, repressed, mishandled, or lost.
