We have not touched upon the preservation of word-processing documents very much, though. Most do not find them as exciting as an image of a Smithsonian event, a drawing of the plans for a museum, or an animal video from the National Zoological Park. Throughout the years, we have written about our digitized and born-digital materials that include images, video, architectural drawings or CAD, and websites.
