Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
Biography
The son of an impoverished Leicestershire farmer, in 1794 he set up as a drawing master in Lichfield, Staffordshire. One of the founder members of the Old water-Colour Society in 1804, he was instrumental in its short-lived reconstruction as a society of watercolor and oil painters (and briefly its president), but withdrew in 1817, the year he made his unsuccessful bid for election to the Royal Academy. In 1820 he held the first of his one-man shows in London, and in 1824 helped set up the Society of British Artists. Glover undertook regular sketching trips in Britain, notably to North Wales and the Lake District, and from 1814 on the Continent. In 1831 he emigrated to Tasmania, using his substantial savings to set himself up as a sheep farmer. (Wilton/Lyles 1993, p. 316)
