Abstract
In archives, the digital objects are not only born-digital and received from an electronic records management system; some instead are also digitized from analog originals. Image creation may be a way of preserving the analog object, and with this action, reducing the need of letting a researcher access the original analog artifacts. These newly created digital objects used for viewing are saved in the archive with metadata about the digitization actions added to them; thus, such digital objects become part of a digital preservation plan where the analog artifact will be the resource to use if the preservation action makes the digital copy corrupt. The digitized copy will not be considered as the new original and the analog artifact is used as evidence. These different kinds of digital objects found in the archives and the special characteristics in the information required as evidence impact the need and use of digital preservation metadata.
