Anyone collecting software, apps, and source code related to COVID-19?

Hello Archive-It community,

I've recently been contacted by a museum curator asking about any efforts to collect software, apps, and source code related to COVID-19, with a specific interest in contact tracing. I've looked at the super helpful list managed by Documenting the Now at https://bit.ly/doc-covid19 but don't see anything along those lines so far. Is anyone in the Archive-It community aware of such efforts?

The curator is already aware of the COVID-related models for tracking and visualizing data in the Internet Archive's Vintage Software Collection.

Many thanks,

Christie Moffatt

Hi Christie,

I'm not aware of any of these efforts myself, but it's possible that the folks at the Software Preservation Network do. Here's their Google group in case you're interested.

Thank you! I'll pass along this info. I see the SPN's recent newsetter's What We're Reading section has several COVID-19 related links, too.
