The document promotes the Petabox initiative to digitize books, audio, videos, software and websites from around the world and make them freely available online through partnerships with libraries, universities, and other cultural heritage institutions in order to achieve universal access to all knowledge. It provides examples of the Internet Archive's existing digital collections including texts, audio recordings, movies, software programs, and archived web pages that total millions of items. The document advocates for expanding these efforts through increased scanning and archiving of physical and born-digital materials with the goal of preserving and providing open access to cultural heritage and information for all.
