Records preservation involves protecting and maintaining important documents and data over time so they remain accessible and intact for future use. This includes using proper storage conditions, secure digital backups, and handling techniques to prevent deterioration, loss, or damage. Whether physical or electronic, preservation ensures that vital information—like legal documents, historical records, or company data—remains reliable, discoverable, and authentic for research, legal matters, or organizational needs. Ultimately, it helps organizations and individuals safeguard their valuable information against aging, disasters, and technological obsolescence.
