Ask a librarian frequently asked questions

Perma.cc is a tool for archiving websites in the legal industry.  It is used by academic libraries, courts and journals to preserve single pages as captured by an individual user.

Perma.cc is an open source tool available on Github, developed and maintained by the Harvard Library Innovation Lab at the Harvard Law School Library. Perma.cc is administered by a consortium of libraries, with each library assisting its local users.

The ANU has a Perma.cc registration, and if ANU staff or students need to create an account with Perma.cc, you can email anne.newton@anu.edu.au who is the Registrar for our institution.  You can then be registered as a Perma.cc user under the ANU, and will be able to create links to pages for preservation.
