Hello,
I'm a Student at the University of Sheffield and I would appreciate any
views that people can offer regarding my dissertation subject. My study
concerns the likelihood of implementing a system of legal deposit for
electronic resources in the United Kingdom.
I hope to determine whether legal deposit is possible or desirable in
the case of electronic resources and how libraries might develop a
collections policy for the accession and preservation of digital
resources.
I would be particularly grateful for the the views of people connected
with the British Library, The Legal Deposit Office, The Cedars
Demonstrator Project, AHDS or anyone else aware of the issues raised by
rapidly changing technology and the fragility of digital resources.
Thank you,
Neil Watson
