Abstract
Nowadays French government is dealing with new kinds of problems induced by the recent technological revolution. Their policies are precise: first to secure the worldwide accessibility of the documents, second to make rules concerning the on-line copyright. Along these lines, well-organized databases are available on-line and besides many surveys are still being undertaken to improve them. In this paper I report on the situation of digitizing projects in France on the basis of interviews I made at the French Ministry of Culture in September 2000.
