The snapshots are currently stored and managed by the UK Web Archiving Consortium. Ed comes from a background of traditional archival curation (understanding of the importance of preservation, context, structured information, user needs); and records management (pro-active maintenance and protection of important assets and resources). Currently a member of the Digital Preservation team at the University of London Computer Centre.
