Abstract

The Norwegian National Museum and Piql have collaborated on preserving some of the most valuable art history Norway has to offer. The project is the start of a global initiative aiming to protect some of the most valuable cultural heritage the world has to offer in a digital format. Safely secured on an Arctic island, the Arctic World Archive safeguards a copy of irreplaceable documents, drawings, sound pieces, pictures and movies, even databases or other types for format with significant heritage value.
