Went to Pandora Archives yesterday to look up some information on a contentious blog and found this:
This resource has been restricted in Pandora
Access to this item is restricted for 70 Year(s) from the date of archiving. During this period it is only accessible to National Library staff for preservation purposes.
Which begs the question - haven't the archives heard of the Internet Wayback Machine which happily allows everyone who read Club Troppo's Missing Links yesterday to find out what Caz and The Hack had been up to (over 50 snapshots of homepages) even if they had never followed that contentious blog.
All the Australian Government's Pandora Archives has done with its 70 year restriction is hold government up to ridicule.
