Agreed that the indexing is important...and keep in mind that the indexes themselves must be indexed once they reach a certain size or complexity! This, however, is where digital developments are important...since this can be done much more easily by computers. In my view, the indexing should be done in some sort of simple format, that is NOT program-dependent (I think it is probably a safe assumption that the 128 characters we know as ASCII will be a standard core component of digitalia as long as THAT exists!) As far as preservation, there are two aspects to this: the first being the preservation of the artifacts themselves, and the second being the preservation of the information they contain. The second is the more important, as the preservation of the artifacts may not always be possible on a long-term basis. Steven C. Barr
