Documentary heritage is a kind of cultural heritage, yet it has not been prescribed in the national legal system. According to Prof. My, the most prominent feature of the draft law is the inclusion of documentary heritage into the list of tangible and intangible heritage, which also comes with exclusive tasks and solutions. As the concept of documentary heritage is quite new to the public, the communications work should be stepped up to raise their awareness of heritage significance and encourage people to engage in protection, nomination and promotion of heritage values.

Nguyen Dynasty woodblocks are currently kept at National Archive Centre IV.
