Archiving of cultural material expanding



According to a law that went into effect 1 January 2008, the archiving of cultural materials in Finland will expand to include online materials as well as radio and television programs. The National Library of Finland will be responsible for conserving online materials.

In the future, the tasks of the National Audiovisual Archive, formerly the Finnish Film Archive, will also include the archiving of radio and television programs. The new law governing the recording and conserving of cultural materials supersedes the current Legal Deposit Act and the Act on the Archiving of Films
