Interactivity:

A preservation information system, in accommodating a user base
of various skills and capabilities, should have the capacity to
define the degree of user interactivity.  This would allow the
application developer to control levels of penetration (level I,
level II, etc.) into the information network according to user
tasks and the complexity of the decision process.  The levels of
penetration might be determined according to levels of user
responsibility.  Annotation, commentary, and the risk of data
corruption by unauthorized users could thus be eliminated.  The
use of simple password authorization represents at least a
partial solution to this concern.  Not only might passwords be
required for system implementation, but appropriate user
identification and date of access could be attached to marked
decision paths and annotation nodes.
