The Advantage Preservation division of the Advantage Companies focuses exclusively on historical document preservation. Documents including historical newspaper collections, books, vital statistics, and church records are carefully microfilmed for 500-year preservation and/ or digitally reproduced for easy access to the rich content that was previously inaccessible or at risk of being lost. Advantage Preservation works closely with publishers and libraries to protect and extend the lifespan of historical documents.
