UKOLN has received a grant from JISC and the Wellcome Trust to study "existing web archiving arrangements and to determine to what extent they address the needs of the UK research and FE/HE communities" and to make "recommendations on how the Wellcome Trust and the JISC could begin to develop web archiving initiatives to meet the needs of their constituent communities". The study will include a legal analysis of web archiving by the University of Britol's Centre for IT and Law. (Thanks to Klaus Graf.)
