Europan Archive presented
At the Information Wants To Be Free event in Amsterdam Julien Masanès today presented the new website of the European Archive, which will be the European version of the Internet Archive. The website which was originally scheduled for launch in September 2005 will now officially go online in February 2006.
Julien Masanès is the cofounder and Director of the European Archive, a non-profit foundation for web preservation and digital cultural access. Before this he directed the Web Archiving Project at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France since 2000.
European Archive’s 200 Terrabyte data center is being hosted by XS4ALL in the center of Amsterdam here in the Netherlands and has been in use already as the European mirror of the Internet Archive.
