arhiveerimispõhimõtted

Arhiveerimispõhimõtted are the foundational principles guiding the creation, management, and preservation of archival materials. They ensure the integrity, accessibility, and authenticity of records over time, serving as a framework for institutions to maintain reliable historical documentation. Key principles include integrity (ensuring records remain unaltered and complete), longevity (using durable formats and preservation methods to protect against decay), accessibility (making records available to authorized users while respecting privacy and security), and authenticity (maintaining the original context and provenance of records). These principles are applied across government, corporate, and cultural sectors to create sustainable archival systems that meet legal and ethical standards, supporting both current and future research and accountability.
