Dear Colleagues,
There is a fascinating article in the Jan. 26, 2015, issue of the New Yorker Magazine:
“The Cobweb: Archiving the Internet”, by Jill Lapore
http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/01/26/cobweb
It offers a good overview of the attempts to archive the internet and Web even as it grows more “humongouser” [her words!]. The relationship of these endeavors to libraries and to copyright issues are worth contemplating.
