We are pleased to announce that we have archived all of the layers from the defunct HIFLD Open GIS repository! A big thanks to Frank Donnelly and all the volunteers who helped out, especially tripleshrimp, ciarra, sefk, and Frank's students! Explore more: www.datarescueproject.org/hifld-data-s...

Colleagues at Brown have been an integral part of our data rescue community. Our hearts are with them and the entire community as they navigate this tragedy.

A DRP volunteer recently added a few COVID-19 datasets and reports to DataLumos. We want to make sure that this information remains accessible into the future. We want to keep public data publicly accessible!

Join us next Wednesday (December 17) for Office Hours! We will be available from 4:30-5:30pm Eastern. Come to our last office hours of 2025. Hard to believe it has been almost a year since we started. We got through it because of this grassroots community! bit.ly/4iWP6rW

We ❤️ our volunteers! Some need to use (or want to use) psedonyms & there are definitely some fun ones. Tripleshrimp is one of most unique. But more importantly we want to highlight the hard work of these individuals. So ... thank you tripleshrimp! www.datarescueproject.org/bea-disconti...

Hot off the presses this morning! Check out the @amstatnews.bsky.social report on the nation's data! Can't wait to read more.

No matter what you call it, documentation is essential for understanding and using data. Whether you're rescuing data or creating your own, be sure you have captured all of the relevant information! (Yes, these are all different; no, not every dataset needs each of these)

We have a new guest post from @clairemkbowen.bsky.social & Aaron R. Williams. We love being able to share these to a broad community! www.datarescueproject.org/two-ideas-da...

Maggie L. Walker installed the St. Francis #235 Circle of the Independent Order of St. Luke in Blacksburg in Aug 1902—just a month after Virginia’s voter-suppression laws. @MaggieWalkerNPS reminds us how important this local history is. Our nonprofit is working to bring it forward.

@amy-pienta.bsky.social, a data infrastructure leader at @icpsr.bsky.social, joined PSC for our latest coffee chat. A 1st-generation college student, her experience with older parents shaped her interests in retirement behavior and the sociology of aging. Her special power: MacGyvering.

If you aren't familiar with The Impact Project, we encourage you to check them out. They are a key player in the fight for public data and the protection of our public servants. #PublicDataisaPublicGood

Join us TODAY (December 3) for Office Hours! We will be available from 4:30-5:30pm Eastern. If nothing else, you can always stop by to hang out with some of the coolest people in the data rescue game. bit.ly/4ayVR0K

ICYMI: a recent article from the #SaveOurSigns team, documenting the project and development, published in Panorama (@ahaaamericanart.bsky.social)🔥⚓💾🛟

On #GivingTuesday we encourage everyone to support their fave causes. Remember time is also helpful. Today tell someone that public data is a public good. Or share the day in the life post with your fam. Sometimes small actions can make a big impact. www.datarescueproject.org/a-day-in-the...

Guest Post on GovScape. It is a great example of how we can build on each other's systems and work to enable access to government information! Follow @govscape.bsky.social for more! www.datarescueproject.org/guest-post-g...

This is amazing from Benjamin Charles Germain Lee, @kdeeds.bsky.social, and @datarescueproject.org: www.datarescueproject.org/guest-post-g...

We are the dream work.

Thanks for sharing. 💯 agree!!

Glad to see continued coverage @wcvb5.bsky.social of loss of critical maternal & child PRAMS data: www.wcvb.com/article/mass... We need urgent advocacy & action to restore CDC funding & maintain access to existing data. @datarescueproject.org @hsph.harvard.edu @icpsr.bsky.social @warren.senate.gov

Listen to the Queen Bee this #MemeMonday and save a copy of the important data-- especially if you think it may be at risk for deletion or alteration! Here today, gone tomorrow-- so put a proverbial ring on it. Or just download a copy.

Thanks to @bloomberg.com and Molly Smith for including our work in this recent article. Check out our newer DRP Portal though: www.datarescueproject.org/data-rescue-... It is much more user friendly than the old Tracker! www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Happy Thanksgiving from the DRP Steering Committee. ❤️

Thanks to Denice Ross for the lovely shout out! We agree that the data need to keep flowing. Help us raise awaress about why public data matter!

We often discuss how public data influences our everyday lives whether we acknowledge it or not. This week's guest article highlights your daily interactions with public data: www.datarescueproject.org/guest-post-a... #PublicData #DataRescue

One of the biggest threats to our federal data resources is the loss of key staff to keep servers running, update files, provide access to data, and dozens of other hidden tasks. So if you're asked how much it costs to provide access to federal data, remember it is definitely more than $10.

Just got the agenda for the next @copafs.bsky.social meeting! The sessions look quite interesting! copafs.org/event-calend...

Thanks to Jill Lepore and @newyorker.com for the mention of #SaveOurSigns but we are more than a hashtag. We are a coalition of librarians & researchers concerned about access to information. In this case, access to our NPS signs. Check out the archive of signs: saveoursigns.org #A250

Thanks @markey.senate.gov for sharing the information! We are happy to chat with local organizations that would like to use the data to highlight the importance of and build community around their signs! Get in touch with us if you'd like to chat. #SaveOurSigns

New article documenting the #SaveOurSigns campaign and its development. Learn more about the project! @ahaaamericanart.bsky.social journalpanorama.org/article/save...

Our sister project Citizen Historians will be talking at this event in December. Zakros InterArts / Bunker Fridays presents Citizens Historians for the Smithsonian Panel Discussion Friday, December 5, 2025 at 4 p.m.

Another wonderful write-up on the importance of accessing federal data. It isn't just the data that are at risk: the data need people to manage interfaces, provide updates, and mediate access, among other tasks, to be actually usable.

❤️ We recognize your hard work www.friendsofbls.org/updates/2025...
