Projekt, financiran s strani Evropske unije in s ciljem zgraditi kompleksen sistem elektronskega arhiva na Madžarskem za celotno arhivsko in dolgoročno hrambo digitalnih dokumentov, se je zaključil v septembru leta 2013. Prispevek podaja poročilo o tem sistemu in njegovi implementaciji v Mestnem arhivu Budimpešta. Key words: e-arhivi, hramba 1 THE ELECTRONIC ARCHIVES PROJECT The goals of the EU funded Electronic Archives project in Hungary were to improve the archival service by information technology support, to make electronic documents in archival keeping widely available, and to create an infrastructure for the long-term preservation of electronic documents, especially those generated by public administration. (Tervezési felhívás és..., 2013) The latter goal requires not only saving documents from destruction, alteration, and unauthorized access but also making them easily available and legible for authorized persons and, later, for the general public, even if by then the digital environment will have considerably changed. These functions should be also available to public institutions for the keeping of their own records before they hand them over to the assigned archives. Making available the born digital documents also entails improving the availability of digitalised documents. ∗ Flóra Orthmayr, archival information technologist, Budapest City Archives, Teve u. 3-5, H-1139 Budapest, Hungary, contact: orthmayrf@bparchiv.hu .
