The Digital Revolution
Digital imaging has revolutionized document management.
Imaged documents occupy almost no physical space, can be easily secured,
searched for content, or made centrally accessible to an office PC.
With a proper backup schedule, digital documents can be safely stored
for years. |
Digital Memory Loss
Digital documents also introduce a number of new
problems. Hardware, encoding and software obsolescence loom
over any digital collection. Obsolete hardware can prevent access
to the data itself. Digital document also require software to
read, interpret and render documents in a meaningful way. Your
ability to manipulate your documents could be tied to a proprietary
file encoding which leave you few options if the software company
goes out of business. Even migrating from one system to another
creates the possibility of data loss.

Digital Archival to Microfilm
How do you save your digital documents from potential
oblivion?
Simple; convert them to microfilm. Microfilm has been a mainstay of
librarians for the last century. Documents are eye-readable and have
a shelf life of at least 500 years. Compare that to CD's which degrade
after as few as 5 years or hard drives and DAT tapes that can degauss
after only 20 years. With our digital archival services, you can have
the best of both worlds; Instant access and long-term storage.
