Internet Archive is being sued

If this happens could this affect all of the information stored there, including our own?

I didn't even know this existed. I guess if it's still up and you find some ebook you want save it right now. That library thing will probably get taken down soon. I can't see them likely winning this. Anyways I don't think this will effect the any other websites on there but if you find something you desire on there from years ago on one of our sites (that might be hard to find now since it's so much bigger today) save it as well.

Make local backups of the stuff you need..

Already started a while ago to save everything possible from the JoS, even multiple times and even PDF copies of the pages of this forum that I found particularly useful/interesting.

If you don't know how to do the last one, just right click on the webpage anywhere, click Print, select "Microsoft to PDF" (this may change, just make sure it says PDF) and then just hit Save (or Print) and name it like anything else you'd save in a folder.
Make sure you check it's actually readable as some pages get corrupted in the process and were unreadable, save them again and it should solve the problem.

Hope that helps.
