Description

It is unlikely that CD based archives will work well for long term (over ten years) archives due to ever-changing PC software and upgrading of equipment. Stand-alone and proprietary software should be avoided for long term archival projects. Documents should be archived to multiple page TIFF or PDF file format for long term storage, to ensure that the complete document remains intact. Regular and ongoing inspections and assessment of long term record archives should be performed to ensure the readability, access and usability of records
