Donna,
You can use Velum. Paper is a litle transitory for true long term storage. Microfilm is a proven technoogy for a hundred years or so. Whether micorfilm will last the five hundred years promised... I will have to get back to you in four-hundred years or so. You could invest isn Norsam(R). Tehy use a nickel uridium disk for storage and read it with an electron microscope. Seems liek pretty cool technology. If I remember corretly, they promise something like 10,000 years. You can look into the feasability of stone. Some stone records have lasted thousands of years. The engraving technology has made great strides since Peter was a young scrbe. Of course if you want a true perspective on long term storage you should ping Larry, He has been in the profeson since 1972 B.C.
