Archival preservation involves the preservation, protection, and conservation of historically significant documents, records, and materials. This research area focuses on ensuring the long-term survival of these valuable items by implementing proper storage, handling, and preservation techniques. Archival preservation also involves digitizing materials to make them more accessible and prevent further degradation. Researchers in this field often study the effects of various environmental factors, such as light, temperature, and humidity, on the deterioration of archival materials, as well as develop best practices for their care and preservation.
