Summary/Abstract: In order to preserve the archival materials of permanent value it is necessary to conduct on-site inspections (controls) of the registries. The workers of the archival control agencies are involved in the process of preservation in several ways. They give instructions on the arrangement and the conditions in the repositories, the intellectual and physical arrangement of the materials, making the regulations and schedules. They also participate in the work of internal committees, review the proposed materials for the disposal, and issue decisions related to disposal and accession of the archival materials. The work on the preservation of the archival materials outside archival institutions is limited by a number of aggravating factors, including insufficient number of trained registry personnel, and lack of positive attitude of the holders of the materials and society in general towards archival materials as cultural heritage. It is, therefore, necessary, in order to achieve full preservation of the materials in the registries, to maintain a permanent cooperation between the holders and the archival institutions, as well as a continuous education and training of the workers in the registries.
