Vast Active Library and Information Science blog. From a recent library science graduate in Wellington, New Zealand. A focus on reference and current awareness tools and issues, especially free, web-based resources.

 
LIS News reports proposals in the UK to extend legal deposit to websites, with the operator of the website being responsible for delivering a copy of the site, at their own expense.

New Zealand has already passed such a law, with the National Library Act 2003 providing for the extension of legal deposit to native electronic format material. See National Library press release, 1 May 2003.
