This is a sad but important announcement about the future of the Hometown by Handlebar website. Here’s a breakdown of the key points:
* The website will no longer be active. Unfortunately, the website dedicated to Fort Worth history by Mike Nichols will no longer be accessible in its original form effective 10/5/2024.
* Mike Nichols, the author of the website’s content, unfortunately passed away in March of 2023.
*All Articles are preserved in an archive. To ensure the valuable historical content is not lost, the University of North Texas Libraries have archived the website.
* Access the archived website here: You can access the archived version of the website at this URL: https://wayback.archive-it.
* Contact for questions: If you have any questions about accessing the archived website, you can contact the University of North Texas Libraries atspecialcollection@unt.edu.
This is a great example of how digital archives can help preserve valuable information even after a website shuts down.
