Development of Fatcat and related web harvesting, indexing, and preservation efforts at the Archive have been partially funded by a generous grant from the '''Andrew W. Mellon Foundation''' ([https://blog.Archive.org/2018/03/05/andrew-w-mellon-foundation-awards-grant-to-the-internet-archive-for-long-tail-journal-preservation/ Long-tail Open Access Journal Preservation]).  Fatcat supports this work by both tracking which open access works are in known archives and providing minimum-viable indexing and access mechanisms for long-tail works which otherwise would lack them.
