The website also contains issues of their newsletter dating back to 2012. The website underwent a redesign in 2014.

The series also contains websites related to Camp Kinderland staffing information and the digital album, "Singing With Ira." The album was made to honor the legacy of Ira Coleman-Palansky, their Program Director, who died in 2024.

Arrangement

Series arranged by date of capture.

Accruals

New site crawls are accrued semiannually.

Appraisal

Crawl was limited to domains and subdomains of campkinderland.org and campkinderland.bandcamp.com in order to remain within the collection scope and data constraints.

Crawl was expanded to include Google documents and the Constant Contact subdomain.

Physical Characteristics and Technical Requirements

Due to technical or privacy issues, archived websites may not be exact copies of the original website at the time of the web crawl. Certain file types will not be captured dependent on how they are embedded in the site. Other parts of websites that the crawler has difficulty capturing includes Javascript, streaming content, database-driven content, and highly interactive content.
