A-Sites: Archived Harvard Websites

Collected by: Harvard University Archives

Archived since: Mar, 2015

Description:

The Harvard University Archives is charged with collecting and preserving the historical records of the University. Much of the information collected for centuries in paper form now resides on University websites. Beginning in February 2007, we began the first phase of our effort to collect this information by harvesting websites from degree-granting departments and committees of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. The University Archives now harvests websites from across the University, anywhere from monthly to annually. The list of sites collected continues to grow, providing a fuller picture of the Harvard webspace and of Harvard itself. HOLLIS catalog: http://id.lib.harvard.edu/alma/990115927020203941/catalog

Title: Harvard Library Web Archive Collection Service

URL: http://wax.lib.harvard.edu/

Description: The public interface for Harvard's Web Archive Collection Service (WAX) launched on February 4, 2009. WAX began as a pilot project in July 2006, funded by the University's Library Digital Initiative (LDI) to address the management of web sites by collection managers for long-term archiving. It was the first LDI project specifically oriented toward preserving "born-digital" material. The WAX pilot was a collaboration of the University Library's Office for Information Systems with three University partners, each fielding a single project: the Harvard University Archives (Harvard University Library); the Arthur and Elizabeth Schlesinger Library on the History of Women in America (Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study); and the Edwin O. Reischauer Institute of Japanese Studies (Faculty of Arts and Sciences, with sponsorship from Harvard College Library). The WAX system was decommissioned at the end of 2017; access to its web archives is now through the Archive-It web archiving service. Collected by the Harvard University Archives as part of the records of the Harvard Library.
