Archiving websites with the Web Curator Tool. Have you ever wondered how the UK Web Archive works?
Wondered about the technical system that we use to collect and provide access to websites? Wondered about how we process copies of websites before we make them available to the public? Well, you're in the right place to find out more! We're planning to use this blog to publish information like this, including technical developments as well as the collection development side of our work. But before we start talking about WARCs, crawlers, SIPs and the like, we thought it might be useful to give you some background on the system at the very heart of our web archiving activities. The Web Curator Tool is an open source, selective web archiving workflow management application. WCT enables multiple non-technical users to manage the workflow associated with selective archiving.
Written in Java and designed to run on Apache Tomcat, a typical WCT installation has the following components: Document-1876 (Objet application/pdf) Non-Print Legal Deposit Regulations 2013: what will they say ? Next year we anticipate that regulations will come into force which provide for legal deposit for non-print works, mirroring the longstanding situation for printed works.
The final draft of the regulations, to be laid before Parliament, has recently been published.Here's a summary of their impact in relation to web archiving. What will we be collecting ? The regulations cover four deposit models, of which the most relevant for the web archiving team are that: (i) a deposit library may copy UK publications from the open web, including websites, plus open access journals and books, government publications etc.; (ii) a deposit library may collect other password-protected material by harvesting, subject to giving at least 1 month’s written notice for the publisher to provide access credentials (with some limited exemptions).
The regulations apply to any digital or other non-print publication, except: Helen Hockx-Yu: Web Archiving at the British Library. The following is a guest post by Abbey Potter, Program Officer, NDIIPP.
She is also Communications Officer for the IIPC. It’s been three weeks since the NDIIPP/NDSA partners meeting and to keep the “Make it Work” spirit going we’d like to focus on the work of one of the speakers from that event, Helen Hockx-Yu. Her team sets a great example of striding through challenges and providing innovative services that are helping to move the practice of web archiving forward.
