 Assuming its responsibility for the cultural heritage that it protects, the BNM has decided to implement preservation policies in order to guarantee its long- term access.
Material nature is inherent in the concept of cultural heritage. Losing parts or whole documents implies losing the information carried by them.
In order to achieve an effective preservation of its collections, the BNM organizes activities that implement technical and scientific procedures as well as management methods about collections development and valuation (HEA Project), reprography and conservation.

 Preventive and treatment conservation deal with components of documents, their vulnerabilities, taking action in order to reduce deterioration processes to prolong their existence and to make it possible for future generations to access to this patrimony.
In order to achieve this goal, it has been essential to asses the conservation state of the institution as regards the building, book collections and library service detecting in this way, conservation needs that have made us think about ideal and possible solutions which have allowed us to outline an action plan that reflects the BNM preservation polices.
