Do You Need to Back Up Google Docs Shared Files?

Do you need to backup Google Docs files which not created by you but only shared with you? For example if your client shares with you documents describing project requirements, do you need to back up these documents? 

The short answer is YES: you should back up all documents you have access to. Especially documents which are shared: since these documents are shared by multiple people they can easily deleted by one of the collaborators. Or the important revision history can be deleted by one of the collaborator which was not aware that revision history needs to be preserved.
