In 2013, the Archive received an additional donation of "approximately 40,000 well-organized tapes" from the estate of a [[Philadelphia]] woman, [[Marion Stokes]]. Stokes "had recorded more than 35 years of TV news in Philadelphia and [[Boston]] with her [[VHS]] and [[Betamax]] machines."<ref>{{Cite news |last=Brownell |first=Brett |author2=Benjy Hansen-Brandy |title=Meet the People Behind the Wayback Machine, One of Our Favorite Things About the Internet |work=Mother Jones |access-date=June 7, 2014 |date=May 22, 2014 |url=https://www.motherjones.com/media/2014/05/internet-archive-wayback-machine-brewster-kahle |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140607031007/https://www.motherjones.com/media/2014/05/internet-archive-wayback-machine-brewster-kahle |archive-date=June 7, 2014}}</ref>
