25. From Wayback to way forward

As the Internet Archive turns 25, you are invited on a journey from way back to way forward, through the pivotal moments when knowledge became more accessible for all.  In 1996, a young computer scientist named Brewster Kahle dreamed of building a library containing all the published works of humankind, free to the public, built to last the ages. He named this digital library the Internet Archive. Its mission: to provide everyone with “Universal Access to All Knowledge.” Dive deep into stories, collections & important milestones in an interactive timeline.
