Archive Writing in Ontario

• Generally, archive writing involves backing up
  media onto microfilm. When microfilm is used for
  either digital or paper documents, the
  information can be read without the use of any
  special hardware or software. Instead, anyone
  can read a microfilm document with just the naked
  eye.
• Many people may think of microfilming as an old
  form of technology and on its way out. But
  todays trends dont support this perception. In
  fact, paper has been around for over 2000 years
  and we still use it pervasively today.

• Why use archive writing in Ontario?
• The simple truth is both paper and digital
  formats likely wont last as long as a company
  may need. Paper is especially well known for its
  inability to endure extended periods of time.
  And digital data formats have come and gone over
  the years.
• Remember the 5 ¼ floppy disk? If youre old
  enough to have used them and have any left, do
  you think you can easily find a computer to
  access their data?
