Kinda old news, but posting this in light of all the recent emphasis on archiving other people's twats. Even tho No Such Agency has it all, future historians may need access to the full body of a twit's tweets. However, I don't have any idea how to access historical tweets from the Library of Congress.

Library Of Congress Will No Longer Archive Every Tweet

December 26, 2017·5:56 PM ET

The Library of Congress said on Tuesday that it will no longer archive every public tweet. Instead it will collect them "on a very selective basis."

Since 2010, Library of Congress has been archiving every single public tweet: Yours, ours, the president's.

But today, the institution announced it will no longer archive every one of our status updates, opinion threads, and "big if true"s. As of Jan. 1 [2018], the library will only acquire tweets "on a very selective basis."

The library says it began archiving tweets "for the same reason it collects other materials — to acquire and preserve a record of knowledge and creativity for Congress and the American people." The archive stretches back to Twitter's beginning, in 2006.
