 +__Abstract__.– The Internet Archive has been compared to older initiatives to bring the knowledge of world together such as the Library of Alexandria and the Mundaneum. The latter example is of particular interest since it proposed the combination of contemporary information technologies with
 +the domain expertise of researchers to produce knowledge. This paper discusses the question how librarians and archivists can collaborate with digital humanities scholars using a combination of new technologies such as computer agents and web archiving with crowdsourcing to reconstruct past and
 +to create future collections for research.\\

 research (or for the reconstruction of lost collections), which should combine connoisseurship and evidence with research and critical synthesis. The digital humanities and semantic encoding can become new tools for searching the collected data. The results can be very useful as long as they are used appropriately. By understanding the ideas that inspired the library founders and benefactors, and by exploring the historical collections (the holdings, history, ideas, users etc.), we can continue a tradition which strengthens our position and helps us in the planning of future tasks according to the needs of the modern user. Discovering the history of the library by its collections could help us to understand the users’ needs and to make better use of it.\\ research (or for the reconstruction of lost collections), which should combine connoisseurship and evidence with research and critical synthesis.
