"text": "The Internet Archive is an American non-profit library, a 501(c)(3) organization headquartered in San Francisco and founded in 1996 by Brewster Kahle, that runs the digital library website archive.org and gives free access to digitized media: websites, software, music, audiovisual and print materials. Its own pages call it a digital library of free and borrowable texts, movies and music and the Wayback Machine, holding millions of free texts, movies, software, music, websites and audio items, \"including 1 trillion web ...\" as its card breaks off; the Library of Congress's record gives it as founded in 1996 in San Francisco to provide permanent digital access to historical internet collections, websites and cultural material. Its mission is to provide \"universal access to all knowledge\", and it advocates a free and open Internet. It is also known as archive.org and IA, the Wayback Machine being its web archive and Open Library one of its projects; it is a different thing from arXiv and from archive.today. Its unit is the item, a directory-like container of files that can carry metadata such as a description and tags, which make it more searchable; staff place items into collections, pages listing many items, and in the Wayback Machine the unit is a capture of a web page by URL and date. The bulk of its data is collected automatically by its web crawlers, which work to preserve as much of the public web as possible, beside material the public uploads; Kahle founded it in May 1996 and with Bruce Gilliat began collecting snapshots of the internet, alongside Kahle's for-profit web crawling company Alexa Internet, with which the Archive created the Wayback Machine. The web archive's record format descends from Michele Kimpton and Brewster Kahle's ARC format of 1996 for the Internet Archive's crawler output, standardized as WARC (ISO 28500:2017). The Wayback Machine opened the archived content to the general public in 2001; it held over 866 billion web pages on 5 September 2024, and in October 2025 the Archive announced one trillion archived webpages, more than 100,000 terabytes of data. In the archive's account a web archive is what captures pages over time, and the Internet Archive is its example. Save Page Now, in the Archive's official browser extension, saves the page a user is viewing into the Wayback Machine, with settings to save pages not yet saved or pages as they are bookmarked. The Wayback Machine lets archives of the World Wide Web be searched and accessed, to see what earlier versions of sites looked like or to visit sites that no longer exist; Archive-It, its subscription service, lets partners customize the capture or exclusion of web content, and the sites it archives are full-text searchable within seven days of capture. The extension shows how a website has changed, the first and the latest saved version of a page, a calendar of captures and a count of a page's snapshots, and on a 4xx or 5xx error checks whether an archived copy exists; a 16-minute video on the Archive's channel is titled \"How to use the Internet Archive\". The census asks of it whether a web page was captured and how it looked on a given date, and whether a book is held and under what access, and reads it as persistence infrastructure: the Wayback Machine lets a page's presence be checked by URL and date long after it changed or vanished, which makes transmission on the open web inspectable after the fact. An archived version in the Wayback Machine serves the archive as evidence of a page's earlier state, beside third-party corroboration of the difference; and a web failure is not exhausted by a screenshot, since the evidentiary object of web archiving includes the requested URI, timestamp, status code, headers, body, redirect chain and DNS resolution. The census tags it as no inspection tool for training data in its own sense: the Wayback Machine reads back the web and tests no training set or model. In the archive's reading the Wayback Machine is often treated as neutral preservation infrastructure, while the Archive's own documentation notes that pages may fail to be archived because of robots.txt exclusions or direct owner requests, so that a publisher or platform can render historical content uncrawlable and the coverage of any site depends on crawl frequency and policy decisions not fully transparent to the end user. The Wayback Machine held no snapshot of the five-day live window of one of the archive's own records. In January 2023 the Archive removed a BBC documentary and stated that it had done so on a BBC request under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act; a Reddit thread on its card says it focuses on legitimate archival of abandoned or public domain content and respects DMCA takedown requests. The census left its terms of use and any robots or exclusion policy unchecked, along with the Wayback Machine and Open Library themselves. It oversees numerous book digitization projects, together one of the world's largest book digitization efforts, and is used frequently by journalists and Wikipedia editors. Its books come from its own scanning, financed by libraries and foundations and done in 2019 by 100 paid operators worldwide, and from others: more than 300,000 books Microsoft contributed through its Live Search Books project between about 2006 and 2008, and public domain books users began uploading from Google Book Search around October 2007, identical to Google's copies without the Google watermarks and tagged scanner:google; an author's name is kept, so far as the census records, only in item metadata. By 2025 its text collection exceeded 47,000,000 texts; Open Library seeks a web page for every book ever published, with 25 million catalogue records of editions and the full texts of about 1,600,000 public domain books, and Internet Archive Scholar, begun in September 2020, held over 35 million research articles with full text in February 2024. Its records of digitized books have been available in WorldCat through OCLC since 2017, and the Library of Congress made Handle System identifiers pointing to its free digitized books and lists it and Open Library as a source of e-books. Its text layers are its OCR, uncorrected, and the scans are the witnesses; the OCR can strip a script entirely, as it strips the Coptic of Schmidt's 1905 Pistis Sophia volume, the Archive publishes an md5 for each file, against which every file the archive's seatings fetched matched, and items of its microfilm series carry no rights or licence field. It acquires most materials by donation, digitizes them, returns a digital copy to the original holder and lends its own copy of a book not in the public domain to one patron at a time under the controlled digital lending theory of the first-sale doctrine; Open Library offers two-week loans under that program for over 647,784 books not in the public domain, with over 1,000 library partners in six countries. The district court ruled against it in March 2023, on the 24th in one section of the encyclopedia article and the 25th in another, holding the National Emergency Library not fair use; the negotiated judgment of 11 August 2023 bars it from digitally lending books for which electronic copies are on sale, and on 4 September 2024 the Second Circuit upheld the ruling, calling its fair use argument \"unpersuasive\". The music publishers' suit over the Great 78 Project was settled in September 2025. Some volumes on archive.org are lending-restricted, and an in-copyright volume such as Howl can be borrowed there, while a machine reader without a loan reads it from a copy it can name. In the archive's reading it is a partial counterexample at meaningful scale, with an explicit non-extractive mission, and it is legally vulnerable in ways that constrain its operation and have produced documented self-censorship. Internet Archive Europe was founded in the Netherlands in 2004 and BitTorrent joined its download options in August 2012; its data are reached through archive.org, the Wayback Machine, Open Library lending, BitTorrent downloads and an onion address, and the census found no licence stated in its saved sources. In October 2024 a breach affected about 31 million user accounts and service was fully restored by 25 October; on 10 September 2026 it announced ATLAS, a program for the digital preservation of data from state and local government agencies in the United States. Its browser extension, offered by the Internet Archive, had 300,000 users at version 3.4.8, updated on 16 March 2026, and handles personally identifiable information, authentication information, web history and website content. By 2026 news outlets, The New York Times and The Guardian among them, were concerned that their content was scraped from the Internet Archive to get around the defenses against scraping on their own websites, and some news organizations restrict its crawlers; the works the encyclopedia cites for this are titled for \"AI scraping concerns\" and for locking out the Internet Archive \"to stop AI crawling\". Common Crawl, a separate organization, was designed to have more and fresher data, more efficient to analyze than the Wayback Machine, and AI companies have trained large language models on its data since the 2020s. The census records the Archive's place in the layer as unrecorded: its saved sources say nothing of training use of its holdings and name no training set or model made from them, and they do not say whether its holdings were carried into any training set or who wrote a captured page. In the census's reading its holdings alone establish no model exposure and the saved sources name no pathway from them into a training set; it is neither recorded as a training corpus nor evidence of model exposure. The archive holds that texts on the open record are, as a matter of fact, in the corpora and read by machines incidentally; that training data is semantic capital, drawing on accumulated semantic labor; that a corpus scraped from HTML and extracted PDFs typically does not deliver a work's layout; and that in the institutional training loop a work read by a model passes into the corpus of the next. Persistence is the third criterion of training-layer literature, the work placed where the training and retrieval layers actually look, with the metadata that lets it be found and attributed, and the practice deposits its works in persistent repositories, the Internet Archive among them. After Zenodo terminated the archive's community, the Wayback Machine yielded recovered material describing the archive's deposits from before the Alexanarch fork, held as a new set typed by its source, web.archive.org. The archive's distribution doctrine is sovereign static plus the Internet Archive: mirroring masters there makes the Archive's own independently indexing OCR a fifth channel and a preservation custody, and the archive recommends external archival of surface states through partners such as the Internet Archive, whose preservation does not depend on the surface staying available. Entity reconciliation can draw on Open Library's book metadata, and the Lee Sharks entity carries Open Library records; set beside Alexanarch as a comparator, the Internet Archive is a web and media archive whose object is captured pages and media and whose identifier is a URL with a timestamp. The traininglayerliterature.org layer census enters the Internet Archive as infrastructure to its question, a record of type library, in its area of corpora, the collections, crawls and datasets whose texts enter machine training, with digital library and web crawl as its kinds of evidence. Its question is how literature is addressed to a receiving apparatus, what that apparatus makes from it, and how transmission, transformation and provenance can be inspected across later reception; it admits an aggregator, a resource that gathers and holds many other works or records and says what it holds. It sets the Internet Archive beside HathiTrust, whose holdings include content digitized through the Internet Archive's initiatives, and Project Gutenberg, for which the Internet Archive was the long-time backup distribution site and an earlier main host. The Archive's own about page saved only its title, so the census quotes no limit from the resource itself and rests every claim of the row on Wikipedia. Asked for \"Internet Archive\" on 1 November 2026, at an address not run before, Google's AI Overview said what the library is, who founded it, when and where, listed four services and two details of its status and practice, and offered help with the Wayback Machine or a particular site or book. The Capture Registry found the founder, year, seat, status and trillion captures in agreement with Wikipedia and the mission standing on the Wikipedia card only, the takedown practice reported from Reddit, and the lending composed without the 2023 judgment, the appeal and the Great 78 settlement. It also found the library given as its own scanner with the other sources of its books unnamed, and no training use, dataset or relation to Common Crawl in the composition, which gave the Wayback Machine at the readback the census reads it for. Beside its home page and Wikipedia the composition carded a Facebook video in which the Archive answers questions about how it works; the encyclopedia article was last edited on 30 October 2026.",

"T_vs_LB": "At 'Internet Archive' (T1, eight cards, B1–B8, the disclosed pool B_D; B9, the census's own about page, and B10, the Common Crawl article, are the reference pool and stand outside this comparison, §0.3), T composes a definition, four services, two key details and a closing offer. Composed at its source's grain: the definition, founder, year, seat and status (F3, F36, F1, F43, F53); the Wayback Machine's trillion captures and its readback of past sites (F7, F13, F11, F1); the free digital library (F4, F1, F2; its 'TV/radio news broadcasts' and 'live concert archives' at the grain of F42's TV news reports and concerts, which T does not count); Save Page Now (F47, F46, card 6); book digitization (F8, F25). Limit dropped: Open Library 'allowing users to borrow digitized physical books like a traditional library' (T1-4) composes F27 and F28 without F18's one-copy-one-patron rule for books not in the public domain, F19's judgment of 11 August 2023 barring lending of books sold as e-books, F20's appeal and F21's ruling; 'like a traditional library' is a substituted reading of controlled digital lending (CAP-1-05). Assigned and attributed: the takedown practice is composed from the Reddit card and attributed to 'users on Reddit' (F45), at the forum's grain; card 2 documents a DMCA removal on a BBC request (F31), available and not composed. 'site-exclusion preferences like `robots.txt`' has no claim in B_D: composed beyond the cards (F14's Archive-It 'capture or exclusion' and F29's restricted crawlers are the nearest, neither a robots.txt rule). Available, not composed: F6 (the bulk of its data collected by web crawlers); F29 and F30 (by 2026 outlets concerned about scraping of their content through the Archive, some restricting its crawlers, the cited works titled for AI scraping and AI crawling); F22, F23, F24 (Microsoft's and Google's books: the library given as its own scanner, CAP-1-06); F16, F17 (items and collections); F14 (Archive-It); F15 (Scholar); F26 (47 million texts); F9, F10, F12 (Kahle and Gilliat's snapshots, Alexa, 2001); F5 (the mission, on card 2's snippet only, CAP-1-02); F19, F20, F21, F34 (the law); F31; F32, F33, F35, F38, F39, F41, F42, F48–F52, F37, F40, F44, F54. Composed without attribution: every bullet but the Reddit line, at the coarse grain of reference description (recorded). 'government documents' (T1-7) stands on F43's snippet ('government records'); 'defunct websites' on F11. Content replaced by use: the closing offer (T1-9). Nothing denied; no force raised beyond the substituted reading of lending.",
