only dating advice i can give is that when there is disagreement between two copies of the same text, the one which has the less-sensical reading is likely to be older, given scribes’ and translators’ inclination to “fix” texts as they translated/made copies throughout antiquity

We just launched a 16TB archive of every dataset that has been available on data.gov since November. This will be updated day by day as new datasets appear. It can be freely copied, and we're sharing the code behind it to help others make their own archives of data they depend on.
Announcing the Data.gov Archive | Library Innovation Lab
Today we released our archive of data.gov on Source Cooperative. The 16TB collection includes over 311,000 datasets harvested during 2024 and 2025, a complet...
