Frequently Asked Questions
Q1 : What is web archiving?
A1 : Web archiving aims to acquire, preserve and provide access to historical information published online.
Q2 : Is web archiving necessary?
A2 : These activities that used to rely on physical records now increasingly use and link to pages and documents held on websites.

Q3 : How does web archiving work?
A3 : The Internet Archive allows the public to upload and download digital material to its data cluster, but the bulk of its data is collected automatically by its web crawlers, which work to preserve as much of the public web as possible. Its web archive, the Wayback Machine, contains hundreds of billions of web captures.
Q4 : why we need to learn about web archiving?
