(ⅻ) She delivers a piece of good reference for archivists beginning to think about the digital challenge. This is a study book with additional reading and resource lists at the end of each chapter, plus two appendices: 'A chronology of technology changes impacting digital files' and 'Software tools for digital tasks.' A good glossary and bibliography complete the reference part of the volume, which represents a third of the content.
