- 13. The method of claim 12, further comprising providing classification, indexing, management and retrieval functionality for the one or more preservation objects.
- 14. The method of claim 12, further comprising storing metadata in a data store that represents preservation object datum and indexers.
- 15. The method of claim 14, wherein the data store has the ability to preserve a representation of itself with a superset of all or a portion of preservation requirements of managed jobs.
- 16. The method of claim 12, further comprising consulting a profile for one or more preferences related to one or more of preservation, retrieval, metadata and queue management.
- 17. The method of claim 12, further comprising determining and monitoring a retrieval interface that facilitates retrieval of preserved content.
- 18. The method of claim 17, wherein one or more of a preserved content identifier, a Boolean query, a text model and a query can be used to search for the preserved content.
- 19. The method of claim 12, further comprising adapting a document vault to be associated with one or more of a print cartridge, a toner bottle and an ink reservoir.
- 20. The method of claim 12, wherein the content is at least one of a document, digital content, a facsimile, multimedia, e-mail, video, web page and music.
- 21. The method of claim 12, further comprising archiving the one or more preservation objects for at least one of an indefinite or predetermined amount of time.
- 22. A system for preserving content comprising:
means for receiving content; means for associating metadata with received content; means for determining preservation specifics; means for queuing one or more preservation objects for preservation; and means for preserving the one or more preservation objects on preservation media.
- 23. The system of claim 22, further comprising means for providing classification, indexing, management and retrieval functionality for the one or more preservation objects.
- 24. The system of claim 22, further comprising means for storing metadata in a data store that represents preservation object datum and indexers.
- 25. The system of claim 24, wherein the data store has the ability to preserve a representation of itself with a superset of all or a portion of preservation requirements of managed jobs.
- 26. The system of claim 22, further comprising means for consulting a profile for one or more preferences related to one or more of preservation, retrieval, metadata and queue management.
- 27. The system of claim 22, further comprising means for determining and monitoring a retrieval interface that facilitates retrieval of preserved content.
- 28. The system of claim 27, wherein one or more of a preserved content identifier, a Boolean query, a text model and a query can be used to search for the preserved content.
- 29. The system of claim 22, further comprising means for adapting a document vault to be associated with one or more of a print cartridge, a toner bottle and an ink reservoir.
- 30. The method of claim 22, wherein the content is at least one of a document, digital content, a facsimile, multimedia, e-mail, video, web page and music.
- 31. The method of claim 12, further comprising means for archiving the one or more preservation objects for at least one of an indefinite or predetermined amount of time.
- 32. An information storage media comprising information for preserving content comprising:
information that receives content; information that associates metadata with received content; information that determines preservation specifics; information that queues one or more preservation objects for preservation; and information that preserves the one or more preservation objects on preservation media.
