9. Archived information is long term retrievable
(
)
Statement Archiving should ensure that information is identifiable, retrievable and renderable. Rational Digital information is vulnerable because of changes in information preserving technologies. Archiving should ensure that the information is obtainable despite all changes in technology or preservation processes (like migration). Implications The preservation processes, standards and tools are used to facilitate data interpretation as information for designated communities. Proactive preservation planning and sufficient technical metadata are needed to support migration activities. Notes (if any)
