Information overload at LOC

Thought I'd share. From "Library of Congress Groans Under Data Strain":

"Even with the falling cost of storage, the Library of Congress is still confronted with an almost incomprehensible volume of data, prompting officials to forge partnerships with a slew of government and commercial organizations.

As well as helping the library design its storage systems and build specific preservation tools, officials also need help in deciding which digital data needs to be preserved, and which does not."
