+SQLite is a
+<a href="https://www.loc.gov/preservation/resources/rfs/">Recommended Storage Format</a>
+for datasets according to the
+<a href="https://www.loc.gov/">US Library of Congress</a>.

+
+<p>
+Recommended storage formats are formats which, in the opinion of the
+preservationists at the Library of Congress, maximizes the chance of
+survival and continued accessibility of digital content.
+When selecting recommended storage formats, the following criteria are
+considered (quoting from the LOC website):
+
+</p><ol>
+<li><p><b>Disclosure.</b>
+Degree to which complete specifications and tools for validating
+technical integrity exist and are accessible to those creating and
+sustaining digital content.
+A spectrum of disclosure levels can be observed for digital formats.
+What is most significant is not approval by a recognized standards body,
+but the existence of complete documentation.
+</p></li><li><p><b>Adoption.</b>
+Degree to which the format is already used by the primary creators,
+disseminators, or users of information resources.
+This includes use as a master format, for delivery to end users,
+and as a means of interchange between systems.
+</p></li><li><p><b>Transparency.</b>
+Degree to which the digital representation is open to direct analysis
+with basic tools, such as human readability using a text-only editor.
+</p></li><li><p><b>Self-documentation.</b>
+Self-documenting digital objects contain basic descriptive,
+technical, and other administrative metadata.
+</p></li><li><p><b>External Dependencies.</b>
+Degree to which a particular format depends on particular hardware,
+operating system, or software for rendering or use and the predicted
+complexity of dealing with those dependencies in future technical
+environments.
+</p></li><li><p><b>Impact of Patents.</b>
+Degree to which the ability of archival institutions to sustain content
+in a format will be inhibited by patents.
+</p></li><li><p><b>Technical Protection Mechanisms.</b>
+Implementation of mechanisms such as encryption that prevent the
+preservation of content by a trusted repository.
+</p></li></ol>
