Notes

Please note the following:

• Web sites will not be available in the Internet Archive if the Web site uses a robots.txt file which bans robots from accessing the Web site.
• Web sites may not be available in the Internet Archive if the Web site has not been harvested by the Internet Archive's robot software.

If a Web site is available in the Internet Archive this gives an indication that is may be suitable for archiving using a harvesting approach.
