*sigh*

If you care about archives, esp ones that have high quality digitized vintage newspapers, please write the CA Legislature to get the 2026 budget reinstated so this vital resource can stay open.

Dear CDNC Users, I write to ask for your help. For the last decade we have received funding every year from the State Legislature. That funding has been cut from the 2026 budget. Without it, the CDNC will go offline and the work we do to preserve and digitize California newspapers will end. Please take a couple of minutes to email the budget subcommittee members and urge them to put our funding back in the budget. I have provided some sample text below that you can copy and paste into “Comments” section of their contact forms. The contact information for the committee members is here: https://sbud.senate.ca.gov/members/subcommittee-1 https://abgt.assembly.ca.gov/sub-committees/subcommittee-no-3-education-finance At the very least, I would ask that you email the Chairs (Senator Laird and Assembly Member Alvarez). If you can also email some of the committee members, all the better. Thank you for your support of our work. Best, Brian --- Director, Center for Bibliographical Studies and Research UC Riverside

"The CDNC is being hit, yet again, with excessive bot traffic which is overwhelming our server. We’re working to block the attacks but right now the CDNC is down. We hope to be back up soon and have a method for blocking future attacks."
