Resumen de Painted lines: Preservation connections
Preservation, the safeguarding of collections for the future, is a key area of convergence for libraries, archives, museums and other memory institutions. This applies to the preservation of �traditional� physical collections as well as to preservation in the new digital world. Preservation management is essentially a �way of seeing,� providing the framework that underpins and guides the different strategies for safeguarding collections.
Using the metaphor of connected �painted lines�, this paper explores how the principle of an interconnected �way of seeing� can potentially shape practical and effective preservation strategies that traverse the digital and physical worlds.
