    (2017)
    Lelkes-Rarugal, Carlos
    This document replaces our monthly “Web Archiving Statistics” report. Following a review of the monthly report, and in consultation with stakeholders, the new document aims to convey a clearer, more narrative account of our web archiving statistics, reflecting key figures such as growth in our curated titles and usage of the collection. It is our intention to distribute this report quarterly (June, September and December) with a more comprehensive report at the end of the financial year in March.

    UKWA Interim Report Second Quarter 2018
    (2018)
    Lelkes-Rarugal, Carlos
    This is the second instalment of the Web Archiving Statistics Quarterly Report. Following a review of the previous format of the monthly report, and in consultation with stakeholders, this document aims to convey a clearer, more narrative account of our web archiving statistics, reflecting key figures such as growth in our curated titles and usage of the collection. It is our intention to distribute this report quarterly (June, September and December) with a more comprehensive report at the end of the financial year in March. There have been some improvements made to the way we report the Reading Room statistics. The Hadoop Storage File System statistics have also been included, to reflect a new reporting feature developed by Andrew Jackson. This is the first time we have been able to report on an analysis of the size of the UK Web Archive in more detail.

    UK Web Archive Annual Report April 2017- March 2018
    (2018)
    UK Web Archive
    The UK Web Archive (UKWA) collects websites by two distinct methods. Curators and other authorised people select individual targets (URLs) using the Annotation and Curation Tool (W3ACT). This selection is on-going throughout the year but is of relatively low volume (thousands of websites). In addition, UKWA conducts an ‘Annual Domain Crawl’ (once per year) that automatically archives websites that can be identified by the harvesting software as meeting the scope of the Non-Print Legal Deposit. The Annual Domain Crawl results in the bulk of archived material (millions of websites). This report collates the quarterly web archiving statistical reports from the preceding financial year (April 2017-March 2018). It covers headline statistics, collection development and work on the UK Web Archive interface redevelopment. The report does not cover technical updates which are reported on elsewhere, particularly in the Legal Deposit Web Archiving Sub Group (LDWASG) meetings which are fed into LDIG. There is a glossary that defines the web archiving terminology used at the end of this document.

    UK Web Archive Annual Report April 2020 - March 2021
    (2021-10-22)
    UK Web Archive
    The UK Web Archive is a shared resource and collaborative activity of the six UK legal deposit libraries. Since April 2013 it has been a cornerstone of our collecting under legal deposit. This report covers an exceptional year, which has highlighted the strengths, resilience and adaptability of staff across the legal deposit libraries in responding to collection challenges and maintaining services to users. In this year, we have curated a detailed collection to document the UK’s experience during the pandemic, and worked with our international partners to document the global impact of coronavirus. We adapted our annual domain crawl of all UK websites so that it could use cloud services and run during a period of remote working and unprecedented demand on network bandwidth. In our 15th anniversary year, we were also honoured to receive the ‘Safeguarding the Digital Legacy’ Digital Preservation Award. The Award reflected the urgency and importance of both web archiving and the research use of the archived web, and is also recognition of the partners that we have worked with to develop the UK Web Archive. This report highlights the activities of the UK Web Archive over the last year (April 2020 - March 2021). The report looks at notable areas of interest such as collection development, ongoing partnerships, projects and awards. It also shows headline statistics in many aspects of the web archive service.

    The DigiSpec Project was funded by the UK Arts and Humanities Research Council in 2022 under its “Scoping Future Data Services for the Arts and Humanities” programme. As part of the evidence base for its report, the project collected twenty short Case Reports from experts in the field of born-digital data services. Each of these describes the current and future activities and requirements of a significant UK project or service. These Case Reports are published in this collection. The DigiSpec Project also commissioned three longer Case Studies, which are being published separately- <strong>TABLE of CONTENTS</strong> <strong>Author</strong> <strong>Project</strong> <strong>Pages</strong> David Beavan, Timothy Hobson (Alan Turing Institute) Living with Machines 1-4 Giles Bergel, Abhishek Dutta, Andrew Zisserman (University of Oxford) National Library of Scotland Chapbooks 5-8 Aruna Bhaugeerutty (Oxford) Oxford University Museums Digital Collections Service 9-12 Samantha Blickhan (Zooniverse &amp; Adler Planetarium) ALICE: The Aggregate Line Inspector &amp; Collaborative Editor 13-14 Toby Burrows (University of Oxford) Knowledge graphs – Mapping Manuscript Migrations 15-19 Alan Chamberlain (University of Nottingham) Rider Spoke – Riders Have Spoken (Archive) 20-21 Arianna Ciula (King’s College London) King’s Digital Lab Infrastructure at King’s College London 22-28 Ian Cooke (British Library) The UK Web Archive 29-32 Ian Cooke &amp; Stella Wisdom (British Library), Graeme Hawley (National Library of Scotland) Emerging formats 33-37 Tim Crawford, Golnaz Badkobeh, &amp; David Lewis (Goldsmiths University of London), Alastair Porter (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona), Laurent Pugin &amp; Rodolfo Zitellini (RISM Digital, Bern) F-Tempo (Full-Text search of Early Music Prints Online) 38-41 Nicholas Cronk, Birgit Mikus (University of Oxford) Challenges of Scholarly Editions: Digital Voltaire and Digital d’Holbach 42-44 Neil Jefferies (University of Oxford), Peter Cornwell (Data Futures) Annotation: anÉ™stor 45-47 Neil Jefferies (University of Oxford), Peter Cornwell (Data Futures) Redelivery: freizo 48-50 Huw Jones (Cambridge University) Cambridge Digital Library – TEI Metadata 51-54 Christopher Melen (Royal National College of Music) PriSM Sample RNN 55-58 Kieron Niven (Archaeology Data Service) High Speed 2 (HS2) Historic Environment Digital Archive 59-63 Rachel Proudfoot, Nicola Barnet, Masud Khokar, John Salter (University of Leeds) White Rose Etheses Online: theses as complex digital objects 64-69 Gethin Rees (British Library) Open Geospatial Data Application and Services viewer (OGDAS) 70-72 Pedro Maximo Rocha &amp; Amy Sampson (The National Archives) Environmental monitoring system and its integration with digital twins 73-75 Martin Wynne (University of Oxford) Literary and Linguistic Data Service [formerly Oxford Text Archive] 76-78 The "DigiSpec: Scoping future born-digital data services for the arts and humanities" project was funded by the UK Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) under research grant number AH/W007592/1.
