Archiving websites has been the subject of several international projects over the last few years, although they tend to approach archiving from a library and post-production perspective rather than an institutional records management perspective. I have a small paper on this subject that will be presented in poster form at WWW2006 and posted on my staff webpages - http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/ukoln/staff/m.pennock/ - in the next few weeks. WRT a UK model, the UK Web Archiving Consortium is a great place to start - http://www.webarchive.org.uk/ If you want some articles and information on other national approaches, have a browse through articles and info on the NLA PADI (Preserving Access to Digital Information) webpages on Web Archiving - http://www.nla.gov.au/padi/topics/92.html This site is highly recommended as it contains a wealth of infomration about different approaches. I would also recommend that you look through the proceedings from the recent Digital Curation Centre (DCC) workshop on Future-Proofing Institutional Websites - http://www.dcc.ac.uk/events/fpw-2006/ and the related discussions on the DCC forum - http://forum.dcc.ac.uk/viewtopic.php?p=284&sid=b1a449cfa66fcd21355fdd85bf6ca341 best wishes, Maureen.
