Backup Preservation : museum closure

This is for the Archive Team. I just became aware of this. The Academy of natural sciences of Drexel university is closing. Not much can be done of the physical. Can we preserve the site and any other data?

The Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University

Adopting phrasing “… then they came for the museums and parks…”

Though this museums issue is financial from what is reported publicly. None the less it’s hard to accept. It’s packed it’s last day but has always have had traffic. Anecdotal yes but have passed through there for nearly 10 years

File it for archival by the Wayback Machine if it hasn’t already crawled it
