----------------------------Original message----------------------------
The following query was recently posted on an archives discussion list, but
it's pertinent to those of us in museum libraries as well.  Of the museums
publishing unique documents on their web sites (as opposed to putting up
images and press releases), has anyone come up with a permanent, longterm
approach to capture such documents that takes into consideration the
problems of longterm storage of digital information?  does your museum
maintain a web-archive for such documents, is this readily accessible to
library users and whose job is it to maintain this permanently?
