Who are we?

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

We are one. We are legion. And we're trying really hard not to forget.

I googled the lyrics to The Star-Spangled Banner after that meme performance and the first three results that I clicked on were all PDF downloads instead of links to pages I just kept not looking before clicking and then yelling FUCK so anyway I've got three PDFs of The Star-Spangled Banner on my phone that I will find in 9 months and they will baffle me

Oh Daddy can you see by the Dawn's easily long What do probably we jailed add the Twilight last glowing Whoa being strips and bright state They'd the person force Or the ramparts we watched We're so thankful streaming

And the tickets red flare The bonds busting in sure Have proof their the night That it flat was still there

Oh saw guys that day spangled banner yet and Or the leave of the few And the home of the brave

I consume those stuff when I don't have a internet connection. So basically I download audibooks and stuff then when I don't have internet access I read it.
