5.0 out of 5 stars Practical and informed advice
Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2020
Verified Purchase
Dr. Tomas Svoboda has written a practical and informative guide for protecting personal digital assets for future generations. Even for those who have already closely considered the subject, the book will surely provide new insights. In clear language, rooted in his deep experience as a technologist, including in long-term digital preservation at the National Library of the Czech Republic, Svoboda articulates how to make one's digital assets both accessible and relevant to one's progeny far in the future. The book considers the archival qualities of storage technologies and file types, but rightly emphasizes the development of workflow, process, and metadata that are essential for self-directed success.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Basic Concepts
Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2021

If you are just starting out, these are good basic concepts for archiving. However the tech changes so fast it's hard to keep up. The book is good for a beginner. Good for a family, small church group, or small community archives.
There are editing and correction notations towards the end of the book that are a bit confusing. The print copy needs some improvements in the title colors. They printed the titles in pale gray and they were difficult to read. I would recommend this book.
