5.0: The Importance of Digital Preservation According to Greg S. Hunter, PHD (2002), the preservation of object, artefacts, monuments and files should be preserve with the computer software especially in museum, archival institution and government agencies. It is to protect on their existence of legal and historical data that may be changed by computing environment because it need to update towards the newest styles on what should be gather for future generations such as students and public researchers.
On other side, Rothenberg stated that the emulation approach involves developing techniques for specifying emulators that will run or unknown future computers, saving in human readable form the descriptive data needed to recreate

In other hands, it is to assist the archivist and records officer to plan, manage and preserve the digital materials in preservation activities on the greatest ways such as preparing the digital storage system, maintenance of digital product, organize the digital activities that has most of the valuable documents and records that useful to be used as an individual and the most of organizational institutional itself.
However, Helen Hockx-Yu, (2006) was defined that there a lot of technical issues and challenges that need to be faced by records staffs and authorize informational specialists those who have more knowledge to organize, manage, evaluate and preserve the records especially the digitalization records system. He was also have been defined that on other side the records officer should be known on their ability to making a change between latest technologies toward a new era of challenges of new technologies that required most systematic management skills on both knowledge and technical skills. These are to ensure that they will be able to encourage themselves to be as the effective leaders of information technology who are able to face that challenges in making effective strategies towards successful of preservation activities in record and archival

However, if it is not having or without on this process, it can be damaged on our heritage for the nations and historical facts for our future generations and those who need most of available evidence that act as their proven references on the historical artefacts where is to making it as the information resource values for the future. Well, as soon as possible, we all as the responsible users of digital materials should be known professionally that enable the processes on each of the preservation activities in digitalization formats that allowed it can be run smoothly on preservation especially Digital
...g digital museums already exists, because it would allow more people to discover works of art that are much in demand, without having to queue and be surrounded by people. The progresses in digital imagery are going to get even more faultless, but one should remember that it remains a copy, and that nothing is worth being transported by the emotion and the magic of contemplating the work of art itself.
The case study by Elizabeth Layman (2011) is a very comprehensive compilation of the implementation of electronic health records, in relation to the Health Information Services Departments. Through this study Layman documents the conditions to be implemented to achieve satisfactory application of the change-over from the conventional pen and ledger system to computer documentation of patient’s records maintained by health networks.

I had the opportunity to meet with Dee Laguerra for a few hours and learned so much about the Medical records side of our facility and its impact on healthcare organization. As Director of Health Information Management (HIM) she is responsible for many aspects of managing the medical record; which is a legal document. I did not realize how complex this department is and how vital this department is to the legal and financial position of the organization. Dee’s position as director is the responsibility for the collection, organizing, scanning, and completions of the medical records in a timely matter after the patient is discharged. The reason for the timeliness of scanning the medical records is for the preparation for the coders to review all the charts to code for insurance billing. The time requirement for th...
For years on end, countries have been fighting with big museums from other countries for ancient artifacts that belong to the original countries. The argument of whether or not the museums should be able to keep them still remains. It is the right of the country to have their own artifacts. It is imperative for countries to be able showcase their historical artifacts, therefor museums should return them to their rightful owners.
The Administrative support is totally lacking with the staff and clients. It has failed in its responsibilities of record keeping by using different storage facilities within disposal, improper handling of confidential matters for employees and staff. For instance, often times, employees are given forms to update their information whereas, employees turn in their updates of information through the administrative manager any time there is a change on personal information on the ground the updated ones from the staff are not found. The indication of this is that administrative support is not there with the administration in keeping confidential document since there is possibility of social security number, date of birth, medical or credit information may be stolen. A failure in administrative support has shown paperwork including medication order, has missed on transit to the corporate office letting loose of confidential information from the residential homes due to the traditional way of keeping records.
Museums rely on items to build their collections but not all the items that are housed on their shelves unarguable belong to the museum its self. In the museum culture, there is a conflict between the museum and descendant communities over the rightful owners of cultural collections.
Historic Preservation is an important way for us to transmit our understanding of the past to future generations. Having the ability to identify and conserve artifacts, sites and important documents allows us to preserve pieces of the history and cultures of the United States.

Health information management involves the practice of maintaining and taking care of health records in hospitals, health insurance companies and other health institutions, by the use of electronic means (McWay 176). Storage of medical information is carried out by health information management and HIT professionals using information systems that suit the needs of these institutions. This paper answers four major questions concerning health information systems.
Modern societies and governments have now put more focus on the preservation of cultural property in each region. For example, states in America have a specific person or company in charge of archaeological matters and university anthropology programs have grown. (Messenger) This makes the ethical preservation of cultural artifacts a lot easier because there is a system in place. The idea of artifacts being intellectual property and essential to piecing together the past
...ats such as paper based and microfilm. Compare to paper based, it does not change the form of paper even how many years pass. With the proper care of the records, record center or an organization can keep the record almost thirty years until the process of destruction. However, it could not happen to an electronic record, because technologies rapidly change. There always have new software or hardware that will be upgrade and become more advance. Actually, even under the best storage conditions, digital media have a very limited shelf life, generally less than thirty years. The efforts to preserve the physical media thus provide only a short term, partial solution to the general problem of preserving digital information. Given such rates of technological change, even the most fragile media may well survive the continued availability of equipment to read those media.
Although the technology is kept on advancing from day to day, there are some clinics that are still using old method in handling their records. Piles of files in registry counter sometimes make the place looks messy and it takes a large space to store all the records of their patients. Sometimes, they cannot find a record due to misplace and the records might be lost. Each time they want to retrieve the records, they have to find based on the series number which sometimes the file is placed not according to the series number. This process will take more time than it should be. There are some clinics that are already implementing an electronic medical record and it gives positive impacts to their record management. Other than reduce time in retrieval the records of patients, the system also help to manage all the records efficiently. Besides that, by using this kind of system, the use of large space can be reduced. Same goes to the cost, the organization (clinic) can save more in terms of stationary and they do not have to hire many workers to manage their records.

The health record staff, therefore, may be responsible for .When a person gains this knowledge this allows for an Administrator are fully be able to make the proper changes in the healthcare organization that will end with the best effective and successful solution.
No matter what kind of digital evidence is involved, once must always take the proper steps to preserve the evidence. The slightest mistake during the seizure, storage or investigation can cost the investigators precious evidence, or even the case. Though every case must be handled differently, these steps are a beginning on how to handle digital evidence. As technology and the crimes committed with it evolve so must the techniques in acquiring and preserving the information.
