The National Library of Australia shares a common concern with other members of the IIPC about maintaining ongoing access to web archives. Our experience with managing the PANDORA web archive, shows that we will probably have ongoing problems accessing our web objects. They are accessible at the time of collection (or we don’t collect them), but over time, due to many factors, access become increasingly problematic. There is no doubt that in the future, we will need to make many informed decisions about the types and effectiveness of preservation actions that are required to maintain meaningful access. This is not just for specific types of web content, but for all content in our web archive.

Arguably, we must take some sort of action to maintaining access to web collections. Therefore, the appropriateness of particular preservation strategies for web archives is important for many collecting institutions.
As there are many, sometimes conflicting views on what methodologies would be the most effective in long-term preservation, it is important to try to figure out the practical aspects of most promising ones.
Currently, it seems to us that the only long-term sustainable methodologies are emulation, migration or combination of both. This project attempted to examine these methodologies on a particular web archive at the NLA. However, the conclusions presented here hopefully have utility for other archives.
Environment
In an environment of increasing collection volumes, increased audience demand, constrained resources and new digital opportunities, Australia’s cultural institutions must collaborate to achieve efficiencies and create value. Infrastructure to support development, preservation and discovery of national collections is increasingly shared including through Trove leading to changing models of stewardship and responsibility for different parts of the national collection.
The Library has decades of experience delivering valued national collaborative services. Nonetheless, a major challenge will be to balance future investment in these services with the Library’s mission to Collect and Connect.
Particular challenges include:
the need to maintain Trove in a context of reducing ongoing appropriation and limited opportunities to achieve full cost recovery through partnerships

Clarifying preservation intentions is likely to be a good starting point for preservation planning for diverse digital collections. This applies both in terms of identifying what needs to be kept and what does not warrant the use of limited preservation resources, and in terms of opening up conversations about what is required in order to achieve preservation intentions. This paper describes an approach being explored by the National Library of Australia to negotiate formal and reviewable statements of preservation intent for each of the digital collections in its care with those responsible for those collections. The paper looks at the relationship with the widely discussed concept of significant properties , as well as the other benefits that the approach is delivering. The paper also looks at the preservation intent statements for archived web collections at the NLA as an illustrative case.
