Just like the USA’ Library of Congress, the UK has the British Library. All the pieces that will get revealed within the UK is archived there. “The uncooked textual content of historical past” The quantity of fabric is staggering and requires Matrix-like robots to zip round retrieving and organizing it.
The web and digitized content material provides a brand new wrinkle to sustaining such an archive. Tom Scott takes a tour!
The British Library is likely one of the six authorized deposit libraries for the UK — and the one one which doesn’t decide and select, or must ask for copies. That’s a variety of books to retailer, and the web’s solely making it worse. ■ The BL: https://bl.uk ■ UK Net Archive: https://www.webarchive.org.uk/
