archive

v. place in an archive; store in a safe place

n. repository, place for document storage; file containing several separate compressed files (Computers); storage medium on which back-up files are stored (Computers)

An archive refers to a collection of historical records, and also refers to the location in which these records are kept. Archives are made up of records (AKA primary source documents) which have been accumulated over the course of an individual or organization's lifetime. For example, the archives of an individual may contain letters, papers, photographs, computer files, scrapbooks, financial records, diaries or any other kind of documentary materials created or collected by the individual--regardless of media or format. The archives of an organization (such as a corporation or government), on the other hand, tend to contain different types of records, such as administrative files, business records, memos, official correspondence, meeting minutes, and so on.
