For two years, academics worked to digitize and translate a collection of Taliban documents as part of the Taliban Sources Project (page currently appears to be down, but exists in Google's cache). As the project comes to a close, they've sought an institution to make the digital archive available to researchers around the world. However, the British Library, after reviewing a catalogue of titles, declined to host the documents.
