Friends of CBI

SIGCIS group

Thank you for your interest in Friends of CBI!

The Friends of CBI represent a distinguished group of individuals, scholars and organizations who have donated over the years to the Institute. As a member, your donation will support our mission to build an infrastructure for computer history through conducting and publishing original research; collecting, preserving, and disseminating unique archival records and print material; conducting oral history interviews; and sponsoring public outreach activities. Your gift also allows the public to access the CBI collections free of charge. Support from Friends of CBI financially sustains these ‘core’ activities.
