Summary/Abstract: The article deals with scanning of the archival materials as the new protection technique. Scanning as such is seriously competing 35 mm microfilming as yet considered to be the only standard way of copying the original documents in the archival institutions. Standardization, relatively simple operating and worldwide use are the advantages of microfilming. Scanning is a relatively new procedure, closely connected to development of computers. As it is well known that those techniques change very quickly standardization is not very likely to happen soon. Easy processing of a document that is scanned (it is a digital record now) is one of the advantages of scanning.
