  2. Legal framework • Everything published for the general public is subject to legal deposit • Legal Deposit Act from 1989 independent on distribution media and method • Includes Internet Svein Arne Solbakk, IIPC Ottawa May 2009

  3. Activities • Full domain harvests (.no domain)-> so far six full harvests (and one running)-> a total of 1 800 000 000 files (and counting…) • Thematic and event-based harvests-> elections every second year-> royal weddings-> financial crisis • Newspapers-> 8 internet newspapers daily • E-books Svein Arne Solbakk, IIPC Ottawa May 2009

  4. Infrastructure for current full domain harvest • Heritrix 1.14 • 8 parallel instances of the harvester • 1 Gbps connection to Internet • 15 TBytes disk buffer Svein Arne Solbakk, IIPC Ottawa May 2009

  5. Main challenges • Privacy-> need license from Data inspectorate to collect and give access to sensitive information-> so far only temporary license to collect, and no license to give access… • Curator tool-> Web Curator Tool looks very promising, but still has some problems • Scaling up ambitions-> full domain every month?-> more ambitious thematic/event-based harvests?-> more daily newspaper harvests?-> streamed audio and video Svein Arne Solbakk, IIPC Ottawa May 2009
