Web crawling is managed through the Internet Archive's Archive-It services. This series
includes links to both the university's collection and the Internet Archive's public

Website may be performed at more frequent intervals in cases of major events, significant
additions or changes to the UWM Website or the websites of schools and colleges, etc.
Social Media feeds are crawled on an as-requested basis.
Christel T. Maass processed the collection in September 1993. Brad Houston and Claire
Dinkelman updated the finding aid in April and July 2017 to include information on the Web
Series.
The records in the Web Archives Series were collected by the Internet Archive’s Wayback
Machine and Archive-It WebHarvesting tools.
