We have a historic idea of what it means to maintain space for analog 
collections. For many institutions a lot of that initial funding has 
come from capital building funds. While the technological solutions are 
not clear to me at this point (and I'm benefiting from this thread on 
that), I am not sure if this won't turn into more of a long-term 
business problem.

Has anyone been able to give a projection to their management on what 
the total cost per TB is for preservation over even a short horizon of 
10 years?
