InternetArchive

Overview

We upload all HPR shows to the Internet Archive (referred to as the IA here).

Each show is an IA item with an URL such as: https://archive.org/details/hpr0144. Here the number 0144 is the show number using 4 digits with leading zeroes.

A show consists of a front page built from the HTML copied from the HPR database. Attached to the item are all the files associated with the show; always the audio files and any other assets such as photographs, added text, scripts, etc. The intention is to make the copy of the show on the IA stand-alone. For historical reasons, there were some shows where not all associated files had been uploaded. However, a project which ended in December 2022 uploaded all of the missing assets.

In 2023 text transcripts of the audio of hpr shows are being generated. All of the older shows had their transcripts generated and placed on the HPR server. At the time of writing (2023-02-26) the uploading of the transcripts to the IA has not taken place. New show transcripts are being added to IA items, but this is not the case for the backlog of old shows.
