7、.15PageDIN ISO 11799:2017-04 2 National foreword This document (ISO 11799:2015) has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 46 “Information and documentation”, with the active participation of German experts. The responsible German body involved in its preparation was DIN-Normenausschuss Informa
8、tion und Dokumentation (DIN Standards Committee Information and Documentation), Working Committee NA 009-00-14 AA “Preservation for archives and libraries”. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. DIN and/or DKE shall not
9、be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Amendments This standard differs from DIN ISO 11799:2005-06 as follows: a) this standard in its new edition is confined to basic storage requirements for archive and library materials. The standard has been technically and editoriall
10、y revised; b) further recommendations for storing document collections are described in two ISO Technical Reports that will be published in 2017. Previous editions DIN V 33901: 2001-02 DIN ISO 11799: 2005-06 DIN ISO 11799:2017-04 3 IntroductionArchives and libraries are institutions established to c
11、ollect, preserve and make available materials intended for consultation.Archive and library collections wherever they are stored normally contain a wide variety of material and formats. These are mainly documents on paper, parchment, palm leaves, papyrus and may also include photographic, audio-visu
12、al documents and digital formats on diverse types of carriers (mechanical, photo, magnetic, optical). All these materials ideally require specific storage conditions to ensure their long-term preservation and access.NOTE See the Bibliography for ISO standards on storage of specific materials.Figures
13、 and quantities given in this International Standard are intended for general international guidance. This International Standard presents some facts and general rules to be considered when a purpose built repository is designed, when an old building originally designed for another use is converted,
14、 or when a building already in use as repository is renovated, with respect to energy efficiency and sustainable development.This International Standard applies to the long-term storage of archive and library materials for their lifetime. It takes into account that the materials are stored and allow
15、 current usage as well.Depending on the climate and economic situation of individual countries, it may be difficult to create and maintain ideal conditions for the long-term storage of archive and library materials.DIN ISO 11799:2017-04 4 Information and documentation Document storage requirements f
16、or archive and library materials1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies the characteristics of repositories used for the long-term storage of archive and library materials. It covers the siting and construction and renovation of the building and the installation and equipment to be used both wi
17、thin and around the building.It applies to all archive and library materials held in repositories, where mixed media may be stored together with paper-based materials. It does not preclude the establishment of separate areas or compartments within individual repositories, where the environment can b
18、e controlled to create conditions suitable for the needs of specific archive materials.In a number of fields, national or local building regulations may encompass such matters as construction, safety and security for public buildings and buildings in which valuable objects are stored (fire precautio
19、ns, emergency exits, security against earthquakes, theft, burglary, terrorist acts, etc.), as well as services and equipment in professional use. This International Standard therefore avoids detailed rules and regulations in these fields, except when recommending what may be additions to these requi
20、rements.2 Terms and definitionsFor the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.2.1archive and library materialsall types of documents kept in archives and libraries regardless of their physical format, mainly books, manuscripts, files, maps, graphic collections and other
21、 documents consisting of paper, but also parchment, papyrus, films, photographic materials, audiovisual recordings, magnetic and optical media, as well as bindings and protective material2.2documentrecorded information or material object which can be treated as a unit in a documentation process2.3lo
22、ng-term storagestorage, for a period of undefined length, of material kept for permanent retention2.4maintenanceactions of prevention or correction to support long-term functionality of repositories and the systems that support them.SOURCE: EN 13306:20102.5repositorybuilding or room designed or arra
23、nged and used specifically and exclusively for long-term storage of archive and library materialsDIN ISO 11799:2017-04 5 3 Risk managementAn overall assessment including an evaluation of the need and the risks should take place especially considering possible hazards.The site for an archive and/or l
24、ibrary repository building should consider the following risks: flooding; subsidence or landslides; tsunamis, frequent volcanic activity, or earthquakes; fire or explosions from adjacent site activities; accidents on nearby air runways or train tracks; proximity to strategic installations which woul
25、d be a target in an armed conflict, terrorist attack or civil unrest; proximity to a plant, installation or natural source that emits harmful gases, smoke, dust, etc.; proximity to a place or a building which attracts rodents, insects and other pests.The building shall be designed to protect the hol
26、dings by mitigating for hazards including the following: intentional harm; fire; water; pests; contaminants; light, UV, IR; temperature extremes or harmful fluctuations; humidity extremes or harmful fluctuations.In order to minimize the harmful effects of external climatic variations, careful attent
27、ion should be given to the buildings orientation, landscaping, the overall climate of the site and the construction of the building.The building shall be designed to facilitate the safe movement of holdings and assist the recovery from significant threats i.e. consideration of smoke hatches, floor d
28、rains and ramps.A post-occupancy evaluation will ensure that the objectives have been met and the desired effects have been achieved.4 Construction of the building4.1 SecurityThe repository shall be secured against theft, burglary, vandalism and terrorism. Precautions should be taken against arson.
29、The repository shall be either a purpose-built detached building or a self-contained unit within a building. Precautions shall be taken against entrances being used by unauthorized people. The building design should facilitate monitoring.NOTE 1 For more information on precautions against arson, see
30、Reference 8.DIN ISO 11799:2017-04 6 NOTE 2 For more information on security in archives and libraries see Reference 14.Emergency exits shall be constructed in such a way that they can easily be opened from the inside and that they cannot be opened from the outside, with the exceptions for fire respo
31、nse.In the interests of security, it is recommended that storage areas should have no windows or skylight or they shall be fitted to provide adequate security (see also 5.5).4.2 Indoor climate stabilityTemperature and relative humidity have an impact on the holdings. Therefore storage areas should b
32、e designed to provide a stable internal environment appropriate to the preservation of the materials (see Annex C).This can be partially achieved by constructing the external walls, roof and floor of the building from materials that, as far as possible, insulate the interior from external climatic c
33、hanges without comprising air supply and circulation required for both collection storage and human occupancy. Walls, floors and ceilings inside the repository should be made of materials that have a high thermal inertia and moisture buffering.Positive or at least neutral air pressure in repositorie
34、s is recommended to maintain appropriate, conditioned environment and keep dust, pollutants and unconditioned air from entering the room.NOTE For more information, see the Reference 15.4.3 Inner structure and load requirementsFor reasons of efficient climate control, fire safety and to limit loss of
35、 holdings in the event of fire, the repository should be compartmentalized.The walls (including doors), floors and ceilings between single rooms and compartments, and between storage and other areas of the building shall be constructed so as to prevent fire (and water) from spreading into a neighbou
36、ring unit.The floor load shall be calculated to include the specific volume and type(s) of archival records, the containers, and the static or movable shelving, cabinets and/or cases.Structural support overall, or in specific higher load areas should be provided.It is recommended that shelving confi
37、guration be considered during design to ensure shelving structural support, aisle width, and movement of materials are appropriate for materials types and containers to be stored.Drains are recommended if water is used for fire protection, with protection against the entry of pests and water. Draina
38、ge shall be configured to carry water completely away from the building.Provide space for safe and efficient movement of holdings. Inner structural supports and doorways will need to be designed to enable safe, unimpeded movement of collections of material by all available means of transport.All inn
39、er structural systems should be engineered with bracing to resist movement or tipping that could result in a collapse or other damage to the holdings.DIN ISO 11799:2017-04 7 A building management system control should be in a different fire compartment than the repository.5.2 Fire preventionThe aim
40、is to avoid a fire within the repository and make the repository impregnable for fire from the outside.NOTE For further information, see Annex A.5.3 Fire detectionAll parts of the building shall be provided with a fire detection system connected to a central monitoring panel. Such a system shall res
41、pond automatically to the presence of fire by detecting smoke or other products of combustion. Heat detection devices shall only be installed as the sole method of detection in areas where other types of detectors may be inappropriate or unsuitable.All parts of the building shall, in addition, be pr
42、ovided with manually operated fire-alarm call points which can be used by occupants to indicate the presence of a fire.The central fire-alarm control panel should provide the ability to monitor all components of the system and should visually display the status of the system.Panels should be located
43、 in a convenient, central location which is continuously monitored while the repository is occupied or open. Where the panel is not located at or near the probable fire-brigade entry point, a supplementary or repeater panel should be provided for the use of the fire brigade.5.4 Fire extinguishingThe
44、 repository shall be equipped with fire extinguishers. Consideration should be given to the benefits offered by an automatic fire fighting system. Gas- or water-based fire fighting systems with no additives are recommended in repositories.Fire extinguishing measures should be designed complying with
45、 the material stored, the design of the building, considering the size of the fire compartments, higher density structure, type of shelving, etc.NOTE For further information, see Annex B.5.5 Storage environment5.5.1 IlluminationThe damage caused by light is cumulative. Intensity, duration and spectr
46、al distribution of any illumination in a repository should be controlled to minimize damage. Different materials react differently to light. Some are more prone to be affected than others. Light in general is damaging and should be kept at a minimum. Direct daylight shall be excluded.In a building n
47、ot primarily designed as a repository, but adapted for that purpose, windows should be blocked or as a minimum be screened by curtains or blinds, and/or by solar filtering on the window glass (IR, UV, visible radiation).DIN ISO 11799:2017-04 8N1) National footnote: If water pipes cannot be avoided i
48、n the repository, water collection tanks should be installed underneath them in case of leakage. 5 Installation and equipment5.1 ServicesSupply systems for electricity, gas and liquids, and drains shall not be located in, above or adjacent a room in the repository, unless needed in that room for a specifi
