When applied to written records, the word "preservation" is fraught with multiple meanings and connotations. For some archivists, preservation involves the attempt to save artifacts from physical deterioration and is synonymous with the conservation of original documents. For archivists with a contrary view, the overriding obligation is to save intellectual content through the use of surrogates. Thus the original carriers of information are seen as superfluous and consequently disposable. The practice of microfilming old newspapers and discarding the originals is one example of such preservation. On yet another level, preservation considers whether limited storage space should be allotted indefinitely to materials that are rarely consulted or whether certain items are so peripheral to current interests that they should be discarded altogether to ensure a home for more-pertinent materials.
