Archiving Web Resources - Issues for cultural heritage organisations International Conference
 National Library of Australia, Canberra 9 - 11 November 2004

Information Day 12 November 2004

This day will enable Web archiving practitioners to learn from colleagues around the world who have developed, and are willing to share, tools and methodologies to facilitate the various aspects of their Web archiving programs.

Presentations and demonstrations will address:

  • Description of the tool or method - its intended purpose and application
  • How it works - demonstration, if relevant
  • Strengths and weaknesses - what it does, what it does not do
  • Planned development, if any
  • Availability - if this tool or methodology would be useful for others, how can they gain access to it and what are the costs

Please register to attend the Information Day by filling in the details on the Conference Registration Form.
