Stability of Photocopied and Laser Printed Documents and Images: Guidelines for Canadian Archives by David Grattan The Esquesing Historical Society recently received a copy of the aforenamed bulletin from the Canadian Council of Archives. This bulletin will be available at our meetings for your perusal. It is well worth a look. The Society has requested permission to print excerpts from the copyrighted document and are waiting for permission. In a nutshell, photocopies are great! Black and white laser copies are great. The better quality the paper the longer it will survive. The only caution is against colour photocopies. These are very unstable and will not last for very long.
