Where do old government websites go when they aren't updated or used anymore? Well, for some of these websites their final resting place is within The University of North Texas (UNT) Digital Library. UNT Library has been involved with creating an archive of government websites that have ceased operation through the CyberCemetery website. Currently, there are around 45 separate collections included in this archive, and some of the featured entities include the United States Commission on Ocean Policy which ceased operation in 2004 and the Presidential Commission on Holocaust Assets in the US, which finished its work in 2001. For each collection, visitors can look over a brief record, full record, and metadata. Visitors can perform advanced searches across the entire collection, and they can also look at the "Recent Additions" area.
