摘要：Information technology has led to the fact that much of the information that earlier was produced
on paper is now being produced in electronic form. E-government services, where the whole idea
is to exchange information electronically, will radically redirect paperbound information towards
electronically generated and managed information and documents. Earlier on, long-term preserva-
tion was all about paper-bound documents containing content, context and format as well as the
legal issues concerning the document, such as signatures and stamps. Although paper-bound
documents still are of frequent use, the degree of digital information rapidly increases. Digital
information is often compiled from different databases, where content, context, format and signa-
tures can be separated and put together differently. The challenges associated with digital preser-
vation are strategic, organizational and structural as well as technological. The aim of this paper
is to present some challenges associated with digital preservation.
