Scope and Content Note
This series consists of an archival copy of the official website of Senator Eric L. Adams produced on June 12, 2008, shortly after the resignation of Governor Eliot L. Spitzer (2007-2008). It contains biographical information, photographs, a map of the 20th Senate District, and press releases (2008) concerning anti-violence programs for children and other issues of interest to Senator Adams's constituents.
Researchers should note that, owing to the structure of the live site and the limitations of Web archiving technology, most of the information contained within this site could not be captured properly. In addition, some of the navigational links do not work properly. However, identical sets of navigational links appear at the top and the bottom of each page. If the link in one set does not work correctly, click the Web browser's Back button and then click on the corresponding link in the other set.
Researchers should also note that in 2009, each senator was allotted space on the main Senate Web site and the official sites of individual senators were removed from the live Web.
