Researchers keeping digital history alive - Greg Kline, News-Gazette

News and other information contained in Web pages, government documents and sound and video are increasingly being "born digital." That's creating challenges for those concerned with preserving such material and making it available in the years to come. University of Illinois researchers may provide some solutions in a three-year $3 million project with the Library of Congress, announced this month. Among other things, they're to develop criteria for automatically collecting, capturing and preserving digital material, as well as sharing it among libraries and other repositories.
