Bindery65 Web Directory
Bindery65 is an independently maintained web catalogue, established to provide a systematic, archivally organised index of websites across a broad range of sectors and subjects. The catalogue currently holds 827 accessioned entries, each submitted by the site's operator and classified by the Bindery65 editorial process into one of 22 thematic sections. The name Bindery65 reflects the catalogue's founding ethos: that collecting and organising online resources is itself a craft — one requiring the same patience and precision as the bookbinder's art. Each entry is treated as an individual record, to be described accurately, filed in its proper section, and made accessible to any researcher who consults the index. Submission to the catalogue is open and free of charge. Operators may propose any site for inclusion by completing the intake form; entries are reviewed for category fit and basic validity before being accessioned. The catalogue does not assess the commercial merit or quality of submitted sites — its role is to record, classify, and present, not to judge. Bindery65 maintains 22 standing sections, ranging from health and legal services to leisure operators, technology firms, and general commerce. The Miscellany & General Accessions section serves as the open-category intake for entries that do not fit a more specific themed file. Each section is accompanied by a finding-aid text to assist researchers in navigating its contents. The catalogue is updated continuously as new submissions are processed. All entries remain in the index unless a removal request is received from the submitting operator or a material error is identified. Bindery65 does not remove entries for commercial reasons or at third-party request.
