National Digital Preservation Strategy

The National Digital Preservation Strategy is a plan to ensure that important digital information—like documents, photos, videos, and data—remains accessible and usable over time. As technology changes rapidly, this strategy guides organizations on how to reliably store, maintain, and protect digital content so future generations can access historical records, research, and cultural heritage. It involves setting standards, deploying appropriate technologies, and establishing policies to prevent digital loss, ensuring that valuable digital assets are preserved securely and can serve ongoing needs.
