Sarah Palin AK Gov web pages have been archived

Good news for Sarah Palin supporters, bloggers and researchers.

Using Archive-It and the manual "start on demand" feature inside the web application, the Alaska State Library crawled Governor Palin and Lt. Governor Parnell's web sites on the eve of the transition of power and was able to capture valuable information that is now offline and no longer accessible...

The foresight of the staff of the Alaska State Library and the availability of the Archive-It web archiving service made it possible to preserve the final changes to these "at risk" websites before they were taken offline.

Actually, all the pages that were available before the transition will still be available. The difference is that they are now in an archive instead of at their former locations. The old web documents for then Gov. Palin have new URLs

Gov. Palin's news releases, for example, are now in the Press Archive here.

We were hoping that this would be done. A tip of the Texas for Sarah Palin Stetson to the Alaska State Library web team.
