## Description

OMN: Towards a Robust Planetary Library: Samuel Klein shares a vision for building resilient systems of knowledge—ones that don't rely on a single library, database, or algorithm to safeguard our cultural memory. From multimodal archives to concordances of primary sources, he invites us to think in systems of systems and map what we’re already doing into something more complete, durable, and open.

Speaker: Samuel Klein (Open AI Network)

This session was part of the 12th edition of Funding the Commons, held March 15–16, 2025, at the Internet Archive in San Francisco.
