This web collection preserves captures from Brazilian web engines. The snapshots were archived by the Internet Archive, and curated to be part of this collection by the Federal State University of Rio de Janeiro. The web collection was built as part of a research project, which investigates born-digital heritage. Since the collection focuses on the History and Culture categories of the search engines, its crawlers were programmed to capture all the available in-links of those categories. In addition, the web collection is also an attempt to ensure that these fragments became easily accessible. For further information about the collection, also available in Portuguese, please follow the link of the Federal State University of Rio de Janeiro's web site listed above
