Preserving Digital Information Preface and table of contents Errata

The following hyperlinked citations accompany Preserving Digital Information for the convenience of its readers, speeding access to most of the book’s references to Web pages. If the fate of these Web pages is typical to that of most Web pages, the links will gradually become obsolete and useless. Hopefully the resources they indicate will be saved in long-term digital repositories such as the Internet Archive.

The numbering of the entries corresponds to the book’s footnote numbers.
