This year the Wayback Machine turns 20! And we've been archiving web pages since 1996. Many don't realize that the Wayback Machine captures more than just screenshots! It's a complex set of tools. Our intern, University of Southern California computer science student Bridget Bell, lifts up the hood & gives you a look at how the #WaybackMachine actually works.

📖 Just about every day, somewhere in the world an Internet Archive staffer such as Eliza is digitizing a book. We scan about 3000 books a day. This year we digitized our 6 millionth book. You can borrow these books for free, from anywhere in the world. Won't you chip in to support our nonprofit library? https://archive.org/donate/?origin=fb-eoy2021 | Internet Archive
