Web content changes all the time. If we don’t save that content before it disappears, a major part of our cultural history will be lost.
This is the message of the second video in the Library of Congress National Digital Information Infrastructure and Preservation Program’s video series. The just-released video, “Web Archiving,” discusses the Library’s approach to collecting and preserving content found on the World Wide Web.
The three-minute video is targeted to librarians, archivists, and others interested in working with digital content.

The “Web Archiving” production is the second in the series, following the Bagit video that was released in July 2009. The Bagit video describes a specification for securely transferring digital content.
