Data preservation projects

There are efforts to try to capture and share US government data as it once again disappears from federal sites. Luckily there are groups working to maintain this data. These are just a few of the groups and sites that you can check to see if data you are looking for is available if it is no longer available from its original source.

• Archive of data.gov
• IPUMS
• DataLumos
• EDGI
• Internet Archive of CDC data
• Data Rescue Project
• libguides focused on ongoing data efforts

The video below is from a recent discussion on some of the data preservation efforts.
