Abstract

Although the National Archive of Estonia (NAE) has a full-function digital archive (reception, storage, use) still not a lot of digital content has been provided for digital preservation in the Estonian National archives. This raises problems concerning the digital preservation of the valuable content for future generations. Institutions complain about the complexity of the archiving process despite the Estonian digital archiving system shows a very user-friendly design. The main purpose of the research project was first, to assess the current status of the digital archiving process in Estonia; secondly, to identify bottlenecks and, thirdly, to provide solutions in order to simplify the systems. This paper discusses the results of this project by bringing out the answers to proposed issues as well recommendations.
