Are they only on the web?
• Resources created directly through web interface (CMS, blog, wiki) where the web representation is the only significant presentation of it, and usually the only ready way to access it
• Resources that exist elsewhere and the web delivers one view of it.
• Interactive web resources, from course-booking to blog-commenting.

Some issues: General
• The sheer quantity and variety of resources on the web potentially needing preservation.
• The frequency of change, because of the ease with which web sites and pages can be updated
• The scale of change possible at a stroke, for example in an institution-wide website redesign
