State of the Art of Web Archiving

18

The Digital Curation Centre (DCC) has released a report on the state of the art of Web archiving by Alex Ball of UKOLN. Web archiving is important not only for future research but also for organisations’ records management processes; however, it is beset by technical, organisational, legal and social issues. The report indicates how these issues are being addressed in current research and development projects.
