Just to clarify, the British Library's archive to which George refers is the Open UK Web Archive, where the sites have been contacted to clear rights to allow public access to them. It's a specially curated selection, that is in the thousands. The Library also has a much much larger archive, begun in 2013, which collects UK sites by a 'domain crawl' and gives access to the archive in their reading rooms (and those of the other Legal Deposit Libraries in UK and Ireland). That is in the millions of sites. And finally there is a collection of UK .uk sites from 1996 to 2013 which, via the SHINE project, you can browse using https://www.webarchive.org.uk/shine and then see the sites as rendered by the Internet Archive (millions of sites there, too). All best - Richard Price (Head, Contemporary British Collections, The British Library).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
