--you might want to  check out what the British Library and other National 
Libraries are doing  IIPC ( International Internet Preservation Consortium) 
http://netpreserve.org
Harvested websites are compressed into WARC files -- the preservation standard 
: using , heritrix  etc. A list of tools are available on the site

one needs to think about both preservation and access :)
hope this helps
cheers,
