12、al Standard for Permanence of Paper for Publications and Documents inLibraries and Archives, ANSI/NISO Z39.48-1992. It is included for information only.)This standard is a revision of American National Standardfor Permanence of Paper for Printed Library Materials,Z39.48-1984. It was prepared by Stan
13、dards Committee IIof the National Information Standards Organization.Standards Committee II was established in December1986 to revise ANSI Z39.48-1984 to encompass coatedpaper. In 1988, the Committees charge was broadenedto include review and revision of the standardsspecifications for uncoated pape
14、r.The objective of this standard is to establish criteria forcoated and uncoated paper that will last several hun-dred years, without significant deterioration, under nor-mal use and storage conditions in libraries and archives.Actual observation and laboratory test results indicatethat paper meetin
15、g the requirements described in thisstandard should survive for hundreds of years. Librar-ians, archivists, and other persons concerned with thepreservation of library materials are all too familiar withthe speed with which acidic paper embrittles. Thisembrittlement has made probable the loss of the
16、 originalhard copy format of much of the published record fromthe 19th and 20th centuries and has necessitated hugeexpenditures for copying deteriorating publications tomore permanent media. By identifying the propertiesconsistent with paper longevity, the standard seeks toencourage wider use of per
17、manent paper so that compa-rable future preservation problems can be prevented.To obtain the data needed for its work, NISO commis-sioned the Institute of Paper Science and Technology toconduct a series of tests of coated papers and of uncoatedalkaline papers with varying lignin contents and alka-li
18、ne reserves. In preparing the revision, the StandardsCommittee II considered the results of these tests, theresults of relevant tests conducted under other auspices,and comments from paper makers, publishers, printers,and the preservation community. The current standardrepresents a reasonable interp
19、retation of currently avail-able information on the permanence of paper, but thereare a number of unresolved questions that require fur-ther investigation. There is evidence that some papersthat do not meet all of the standards criteria, e.g., somealkaline papers with higher than 1% lignin levels, c
20、anexhibit excellent retention of physical properties.Additional research is needed, however, to define moreprecisely the conditions under which higher levels oflignin are compatible with paper permanence. The nextrevision of the standard should reflect the results of suchresearch.This standard inclu
21、des parameters that are relevant tothe permanence of paper. It is assumed that other char-acteristics, such as brightness, opacity, and thickness,will be specified by purchasers based on the intendeduse of their publications and documents. As these pa-rameters have no apparent effect on the permanen
22、ce ofpaper they are excluded from this standard. Tests afterartificial aging are also excluded because the criteria forunaged paper specified in the standard appear to beadequate predictors of acceptable retention of proper-ties after aging. The standard does not dictate the use ofeither virgin or r
23、ecycled paper pulp. As with virginpapers, some recycled papers will meet the standardscriteria and others will not.There are a number of factors beyond the scope of thisstandard that affect the permanence of paper in publica-tions and documents. These include the environmentalconditions under which
24、materials are stored, the methodby which publications are bound, and the use of printinginks that do not adversely affect paper permanence.Permanent paper should be used for all publications anddocuments of potentially long-lasting value. Publishersshould indicate the use of permanent paper in the p
25、ub-lications themselves and in advertising, packaging, etc.as set forth in this standard in Section 6, “Notice ofCompliance.”Suggestions for improving this standard are welcome.They should be sent to the National Information Stan-dards Organization, 4733 Bethesda Avenue, Suite 300,Bethesda, MD 20814
