Federal agencies create, change, and remove Web content without notice. Federal agency Web masters also increasingly develop more and more complex Web sites using dynamic Web technology which makes archiving these sites a challenge. Members of LSCM’s Web Archiving team will share how they are addressing the “messy” issues of the Federal Web and increasing the discoverability and access to Web content through Web harvesting and archiving.

Presentation slides for the Council session that explores how to make discarding easier under current Title 44 regulations and how to change those regulations in order to expedite discarding documents from the perspectives of both regional and selective depositories. The wide variety of interpretations and misconceptions people have about what is and isn't allowed are covered.
