As we move into the electronic era of digital objects it is important to know that there are new barbarians at the gate and that we aremoving into an era where much of what we know today, much of what is coded andwritten electronically, will be lost forever. We are, to my mind, living in the midst of digital Dark Ages; consequently, much as monks of times past, it falls to librariansand archivists to hold to the tradition which reveres history and the published heritage of our times.
