Web pages and e-books to be saved for nation

A little blurb in the UK’s Telegraph about the Legal Deposit Libraries Act, which entitles six depository libraries copies of electronic publications, when they differ significantly from the print. So what about publications that are online only?

Chris Mole, the MP who sponsored the legislation as a Private Member’s Bill, said: “We must ensure that the 21st century is not written about in future centuries as a new Dark Age where significant data and records are missing because certain formats were not collected and saved for posterity.”
