As long as you back up, back up, back up! And have at least one back up stored offsite. And when the media changes, you back up to the new type of media! (like a cd to replace a diskette, and before that a diskette to replace a floppy disk).

Subject: [LegacyUG] Why save copies of census records?


Since I have been using Legacy to attach census images to people appearing in the census, I am wondering if there is any longer a need for a hard copy record. What do you think?

The same might be true for obituaries, birth and death certificates, and some others.

Since most information is stored electronically these days, why are we still saving hard copies and filling up file cabinets? Also trying to come up with a decent filing system. Do we really need these things?

Isn't it time to move into the 21th century and file electronically?
