Help Us Complete the Usenet Archive

Google is attempting to compile the most complete archive possible
of Usenet posts, and we need help doing it. We are looking for
archives pre-dating 1995, in particular the "NetNews CD Series".
These CDs were commercially available through Sterling Software
and later through CD Publishing Corporation between early 1992
and 1995. The CDs were released separately and each CD covers
approximately a two week time span. We've already located NetNews
CDs #6 - #31, which cover March 92 through January 93.

If you own NetNews CDs or if you know somebody who does, please
contact us at groups-support_at_google.com. We will pay a finder's fee
for any NetNews CD we do not own already. Thanks for helping us
build the most authoritative Usenet archive online.

Thanks,
The Google Team
