Abstract:

The goal of National Digital Archives Program is to preserve national cultural collections
and promote knowledge and information sharing. Google's mission is to organize the
world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Google maintains the
world's largest online index of Websites and other content, and Google makes this
information freely available to anyone with an Internet connection. Google's experiences
might be referable and beneficial for building global information service. In this talk,
we would like to introduce Google's endeavors and infrastructures on fulfilling its
mission, and address some experiences that can be referred and further discussed on
archiving large scale of digital contents.
