C2CC Imaging in Context: Introduction to Still Image Digitization for Smaller Institutions
Channel: AIC & FAIC
Date: 2017-11-13

Recorded: Thursday, November 9, 2017

Are you planning or in the midst of a digitization project for your collections? In this webinar, we’ll describe the main elements of paper-based digitization, including the setup of scanning hardware and processing software, quality standards and best practices as defined by the Federal Agencies Digital Guidelines Initiative, the scanning process itself, and we’ll wrap up by giving an overview of how to preserve your digitized assets for the long-term, including some details about collecting and storing metadata. We’ll show you these processes using real digitization projects from our lab. And, we’ll give alternative workflows appropriate for smaller institutions with limited funds.
