J. Paige asked:
"Does anyone know what the lifespan of electronic media e.g., DVDs, CDs
and diskettes is when it's stored at a storage facility in a non-climate
controlled environment with paper records? I like to advise folks that
if they store electronic media with paper records in a non-climate
controlled environment that it might impact the integrity of the media."
Alan Andolsen wrote an excellent article about media longevity in the
May/June 2006 issue of ARMA's Information Management Journal. It was
titled, "Will Your Records Be There When You Need Them?" I've used the
information in this article repeatedly to explain these issues, and I
think it's invaluable.
