Government builds future-proof archive.
Government builds future-proof archive
Michelle Perry
Future generations should be able to read government documents electronically thanks to a new archiving system for public digital records.
The automated process will appraise, select, catalogue, transfer, store and preserve public electronic records that are identified as worthy of permanent preservation.
The National Archives launched its [pounds sterling]3.5m system, the first of its kind, in August, providing the tools to permanently preserve electronic records.
With 95% of information released by the government now coming in digital form, the system will be vital to researchers and information providers in the future.
The new approach follows information from its creation in government departments to online release into the public domain.
