One of the basic tasks of every archives, in addition to collecting and making archival records available, is to protect them from damage and loss. Records, regardless of whether they are „traditional“ or digital, are subject to deterioration. Daily careless handling and improper storage conditions contribute to increasing the risk of their permanent disappearance. The author will discuss current experiences of the Archives of Bosnia and Herzegovina in manipulating digital records, especially in the aspect of preservation and protection, taking into account sharp contrast between historical importance of the fonds that are stored and the outdated and technically insufficient IT equipment which is currently in use.
