As of 2016, the pages hosting the eBCA are no longer being maintained, though the content will be stable until central support for the platform is unavailable. The entirety of the Biologia Centrali-Americana is available through the Biodiversity Heritage Library, including the volumes for Archaeology, with additional services such as taxonomic name finding, easy navigation of the text, and the ability to create custom pdfs of the content.
