Rachel Bers has continually provided invaluable ideas, advice, criticism, editorial suggestions, love, support, and encouragement. She's my favorite creature in the multiverse.

This site would be a lot less successful without the technical guidance and mentorship of John Parsons. He was also responsible for building the library's searchable catalog. His website can be found here: Klondike Five.

Many individuals have gone above and beyond to encourage and support the library in a variety of different capacities. My thanks to the following people: Joshua Beckman, Jen Bervin, Kristin Bjork, Sasha Chavchavadze, Nick Ferreira, Charles Goldman, Christian Hawkey, Jen Hofer, Tim Mac, Jamie Rollins, Aurora Tang.

Maia Murphy brilliantly suggested the name spores.

The Reanimation Library loves its interns very, very much. Without them, the library wouldn't function nearly as well.

As humans continue to accelerate their unfortunate habit of converting petroleum from Earth-based fluids into atmospheric gases, the planet's environment appears to be headed into a tailspin. The library is housed in a building on the bank of the Gowanus Canal—one of the nation's most polluted industrial waterways—which happens to be located in New York City's hurricane evacuation Zone A. Each time a hurricane threatens New York—an event that is happening with increasing frequency—the library gets packed up and moved to a higher floor. These good people have helped accomplish this tedious task.
