Escaping the Memory Hole (IN-PERSON)

Wednesday, Oct 23, 2024

5:00pm – 10:00pm

In a world where major entertainment websites vanish overnight and streaming media disappears from platforms without warning, our digital culture is at risk of being erased. What safeguards are in place to preserve our collective memory?

Join us October 23rd for the Internet Archive’s annual celebration. This year’s gathering, “Escaping the Memory Hole,” explores the vital role that libraries play in protecting our digital heritage. As corporate decision-makers increasingly control what stays online, libraries like the Internet Archive stand as guardians of our shared digital culture, ensuring that it remains preserved and accessible for future generations.

Celebrate In-Person with the Internet Archive!

This year’s celebration is a hybrid event. Select a ticket for either in-person attendance at 300 Funston Avenue in San Francisco, or choose a virtual ticket to celebrate with us from afar!

300 Funston Avenue, San Francisco

Each ticketed attendee will receive a food ticket for one meal. Additional food items will be available for purchase.
