InterPARES is an international collaborative research project aiming at the development of the knowledge necessary for the preservation of reliable, accurate and authentic digital records for as long as they are needed by their creators and society at large. The second phase of this project focused on the records created and maintained in interactive and dynamic systems in the arts, the sciences and government. The research conducted on e-government records identified systems that do not respect accountability requirements, but can be modified to do so; systems that do while the records are active, but do not allow for the long term authentic preservation of such records and should be redesigned to address such issue; and systems that do, and are good examples to be followed.
