Abstract
Changing formats of digital content presents challenges for the archival and preservation of historical information, which are essential to the future of civilization. This chapter explores digital formats relating to metaliteracy and the need to prepare for the future through understanding digital migration, digital archival, and personal digital legacy. Obsolete media concerns include evolutionary changes in digital file formats, servers, information networks, software applications, and the technology hardware necessary to access information. The exploration of changing literacy formats is an essential component of metaliteracy in the metamodern era.
