Preservation is important for documenting original observations, and existing
data are an important resource which can be re-used. Observatories should set
up electronic data archives and formulate archiving policies. VO (Virtual
Observatory) compliance is desirable; even if this is not possible, at least
some VO ideas should be applied. Data archives should be visible and their
data kept on-line. Metadata should be plentiful, and as standard as possible,
just like file formats. Literature and data should be cross-linked. Libraries
can play an important role in this process.
In this paper, we discuss data archiving for small projects and observatories.
We review the questions of digitization, cost factors, manpower,
organizational structure and more.
