Abstract
In the last decade, large scale electronic collections of legal documents are increasing their dissemination in the public administrations, especially in those entitled to provide official and legal publication of the legal resources. But if the original purpose of these huge document bases has been, basically, to produce a digital counterpart of their traditional representation on paper, new and challenging requirements are in fact starting to arise: not only support legal drafting, law-making workflow and consolidated versions of the law, which are well managed by Akoma Ntoso, but also long-term preservation, semantic analysis or ontological characterization. In this presentation we will discuss how Akoma Ntoso copes with these new challenges with particular regard to the legal long-term preservation.
