Functionalities of Web Archives
The functionalities that are important to the users of web archives
range from basic searching and browsing to advanced personalized and
customized services, data mining, and website reconstruction. The
author examined ten of the most established English language web
archives to determine which functionalities each of the archives
supported, and how they compared. A functionality checklist was
designed, based on use cases created by the International Internet
Preservation Consortium (IIPC), and the findings of two related user
studies. The functionality review was conducted, along with a
comprehensive literature review of web archiving methods, in preparation
for the development of a web archiving course for Library and
Information School students. This paper describes the functionalities
used in the checklist, the extent to which those functionalities are
implemented by the various archives, and discusses the author's
findings.
