This accession consists of two websites and one blog maintained by the Smithsonian Libraries and Archives. The Smithsonian Libraries and the Smithsonian Institution Archives had been separate entities until their integration into the new Smithsonian Libraries and Archives which officially occurred in October 2020. These crawls reflect the transition period to a single unit as well as the closures associated with the Covid-19 pandemic. The Smithsonian Libraries and Archives website was crawled on December 16, 2020. It consists of a single page that introduces the new unit and provides links to the individual libraries and archives websites. The "Smithsonian Research Online" website, originally maintained by the Smithsonian Libraries, was crawled on November 18, 2020. "Smithsonian Research Online" assists in capturing the research output of Smithsonian Institution scholars and making it available to Institutional management as well as scientists and historians world-wide. The website includes information about the program and how to use the website as well as reports and statistics. This accession does not contain research publications or data. "The Bigger Picture: Exploring Archives and Smithsonian History" is a blog located on the Smithsonian Institution Archives website. Crawled on November 30, 2020, it includes posts that document the archival collections, Smithsonian Institution history, and behind-the-scenes activities. The blog launched in January 2009.
