Internet archive sites
Internet archive sites can be a way to access content that is no longer readily accessible on the web (i.e. where the links have 'died'). Where these sites have cached a snapshot of the web content (captured on a particular date and time), users can essentially 'reanimate' the links for access.
The way these sites structure the archived links should provide persistence, making them suitable for use in courses and reading lists. Use of archived links is recommended over the use of old PDFs of website content in Course Readings.
The Internet Archive Sites guide (PDF) works through an example 'dead' link using two archive sites.
Note: Not all web pages may be captured by these archive sites, and snapshots may not cover all dates.
