Overview

Pursuing Preservation contains the personal and occasionally peculiar reflections of the author as he ponders the deeper meanings of his own work in preservation in a library context. These meditations probe questions like: what do we mean by permanence, what are we to preserve, and what is the source of our authority to make preservation decisions? Driedger attempts to create conversations between various preservation communities including voices from the archives and museum worlds, as well as distinctly non-western approaches to preservation.
