Abstract
Digitalization of the HTV News Programme has changed the techniques used so far for archiving the AV material. Access to the server now gives archivists more independency in their work and also a more direct contact with the work of journalists (raw material and semi–finalized products). This has made possible a more creative approach to archiving, which is one of the crucial aspects of the production, required at the end of production, but often at its beginning as well. Digitalization enables the creation of on–line archives – the Workspace within the scope of the Media Manager. The archives are created from the existing analogue material entered into the server and from the material that is already on the server, which – due to its (most often) use value – needs to be part of the Workspace Archives. As a result, the archives are divided in the so – called »legacy« (existing, inherited) and »born« (newly established) archives. The first ones contain materials from the old media and their access to the digital world is possible only by migration. The other archived material is available on the server upon direct ingestion, or transfer from the digital storage. Its content may never be copied and physically handled. Instead, it will remain stored for the virtual availability to users.
