Summary/Abstract: «Hybrid archiving» that includes digital and microfim processing and preservation of archival material as valuable cultural and evidential inheritance is an important project for protecting, popularization and use of archival material. Also, process of digitalization is a major step in attempt to bridge the gap between Bosnia and Herzegovina and standard practices regarding preservation of archival material in Europe and rest of the world. In that sense the Archive of Tuzla Canton recognized importance of hybrid archiving (digitalization and microfilming). All that presents small but important step in efforts to ensure efficient preservation of archival fonds and collections, and priority should be focused on those that were declared as national cultural monuments of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This must be achieved by following acceptable standards and norms that will ensure valid organization, presentation and use of digitalized informations, while ensuring safe preservation of important material.
