Help preserve a manual
24,231 manuals we know of online still need a preserved copy. Open a random one, download it, and the extension preserves it.
Checking your OpenManuals extension…
First, install the OpenManuals browser extension and turn on uploads in its settings. A download made without it isn't preserved.
Uploads are off in your extension. Turn them on so your download is preserved.
Your extension is ready. Download the manual there as usual; it's preserved on the Internet Archive automatically.
Sites we check
When you open a manual on one of these sites, the extension shows whether it's already preserved, and with uploads on it preserves the ones you download.
