Will Paper-less kill history?

All this hype about electronic work. With ebooks, ereaders, emails and text messages no body writes on paper any more. Thinking about History though we have learned the majority of what we know from paper documents.

If say there was some significant event that send us back to the stone age. How much of our history would we lose to the age of technology?


I was just thinking out loud, I myself am not sure how much significant information we lose every day or even if it makes a difference but would be an interesting study.
