Digitization is the process of converting information into a digital format. Records is an information that are create, receive and maintain by an organization as an evidence while archive is a document that contain historical background for the country and organization. Archives contain primary source documents that have accumulated over the course of an individual or organization's lifetime, and are kept to show the function of that person or organization. Nowadays, digitization is a new method for records and archives management to keep their record or document for further lifetime existence. Digitization can dramatically increase accessibility, creating more ways to present your records to new and wider audiences.
