In an effort to preserve the knowledge, history, and culture of the 20th and 21st centuries, as contained in digital form on the Web, an "Internet library" known as the Internet Archive has been created. The Internet Archive is an important electronic historical repository that will assist many social work authors in keeping their Internet references valid and alive. It should also be recognized that this archive offers social work researchers and educators many new and unique opportunities that were not previously possible. It is now possible for changes in social policy to be examined and documented over a given time by observing changes in governmental Web sites. Alternatively, it is also possible for educators to ask their students to search a specific topic in a given time period to gain a better understanding of historical attitudes and biases. The Internet Archive is an important resource with which all academicians, students and researchers should make themselves familiar. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
