Library of Congress

“The Library of Congress has accumulated unique relics such as photographs and recordings that unfortunately deteriorate over time. Signiant helps us securely manage, move, preserve and share these priceless American treasures internally and online once they are digitized, and even helps us archive user-generated content from various public websites, including Twitter. Social media updates may seem like disposable bits of pop-culture today, but future generations of archeologists may feel differently.”
