Archive of UK Central Government websites

September 27, 2003

Public Record Office | UK Central Government Web Archive
“This new initiative will collect and preserve 50 government websites,
including the Hutton Inquiry, 10 Downing Street and the Northern Ireland
Office. Sites are being collected as weekly or 6-monthly snapshots, using a
specially-modified version of the Internet Archive’s web crawler. The
complete archive is being made available on the web and in the National
Archives’ public search rooms at Kew. A copy of each snapshot is also being
accessioned for long-term preservation by our Digital Preservation
Department.”
