    Part of the Internet Archive, which also covers archived moving images (The Internet Moving Images Archive), audio and software, the Wayback Machine holds cached versions of thousands of websites and billions of pages, allowing users to look at sites that are no longer available or at earlier versions of ones that are still around. An invaluable resource that, due to the gigantic nature of the holdings, is slightly hampered by the fact that no list of the holdings can be easily provided. This means inevitably that correct recall of the URL in question is necessary, or failing that, searching for it on the web first.

    This extremely detailed resource from the University of Virginia provides a very large number of video and audio clips on Tibet and its peoples and culture which require QuickTime to access. They can be searched individually by collection or region or across the entire database. The encoding is decent, but the image size is rather small. The material goes as far back as the 1930s and clips vary in length for a few minutes to close to half an hour. It is possible to search the collection individually and by keyword, although accessing the materials can be a little bit laborious. The site is also available in Tibetan, Nipali, Chinese and Japanese.

    The WGBH Media Archives and Preservation Center presents bulletins from WGBH’s in-depth nightly news program, The Ten O’Clock News. The material covers the years from 1974 to 1991 and can be searched by keyword, name, location and chronologically and are between 30 and 200 seconds in length and require QuickTime. From a design perspective, the site is not particularly attractive and somewhat spartan, but the materials held are often fascinating, with emphasis on serious political issues such as desegregation in schools, AIDS and affordable housing.
