Going, going, still there: using the WebCite service to permanently archive cited Web pages

AMIA Annu Symp Proc. 2006:2006:919.

Abstract

Scholars are increasingly citing electronic "web references" which are not preserved in libraries or full text archives. WebCite is a new standard for citing web references. To "webcite" a document involves archiving the cited Web page through www.webcitation.org and citing the WebCite permalink instead of (or in addition to) the unstable live Web page.
