A really nice compliment.

Our website devoted to the study of Nuclear Power, http://nuclearinfo.net has been selected for Digital Archiving. I received this email asking for our permission.

Dear Professor Sevior

Request for permission to archive nuclearinfo.net website at http://www.nuclearinfo.net

The National Library of Australia aims to build a comprehensive collection of Australian publications to ensure that Australians have access to their documentary heritage now and in the future. The Library has traditionally collected items in print, but it is also committed to preserving electronic publications of lasting cultural value.

PANDORA, Australia's Web Archive, was set up by the Library in 1996 to enable the archiving and provision of long-term access to online Australian publications. Since then we have been identifying online publications and archiving those that we consider have national significance. Additional information about PANDORA can be found on the Library's server at: http://pandora.nla.gov.au/index.html

We would like to include the nuclearinfo.net website in the PANDORA Archive and I would be grateful if you would let me know whether you are willing to permit us to do so, that is, grant us a licence under the Copyright Act 1968, to copy the publication into the Archive and to provide public online access to it via the Internet. This means that you would grant the Library permission to retain the publication in the Archive and to provide public access to it in perpetuity.

Nice :-)
