UCLA Library Los Angeles Government and Nongovernmental Web Publications

As part of the NDIIPP Web-at-Risk project, the UCLA Library will create a local government agency and non-governmental web archive. Two exemplary issues that these agencies cover are “Homelessness in Los Angeles” and the “LA River”. These issues are of particular research and social value to the academic community and general public for the study of Los Angeles. The collection will provide significant information about the current and historical context for the study of homelessness in the LA area. The following slides illustrate the types of materials to be preserved in this collection.
