Strength below and grace above: the structuration of records

Digital resources will be de-contextualised from the moment they are born unless they are immediately taken across an archival boundary where the relationships necessary for their survival as records are preserved and kept. This is what we do. That is our strength. We know (or once knew) how to do that. Records are transported into an archival realm to preserve meaning but also to ensure that meaning as well as content lies at the end of the road to discovery. For us, then, grace lies in finding better ways to do that imaginatively and effectively.
