Title: Digital imaging
Description: "This introductory practitioner's guide to digital imaging focuses on a practical approach to undertaking and managing a digitization project. It offers advice on how to capture a digitized image from print, photographs, surrogates and other material, including rare and fragile items, and looks at the bulk digitization of grey material. It also discusses the options and the preservation and access issues involved at each stage, and the factors determining digital image quality.

The chapters include: Where do you start? The digitization project; What are you digitizing? Instigation, selection and assessment; How do you digitize?; What are the next steps? Preparation and digitization; and What else is needed? Cataloguing, delivery and completion.".

"Complete with its listing of further sources of information in an international context, this text is essential reading for library practitioners across all sectors who are considering undertaking a digitization project. It is equally valuable for all information professionals and students of LIS who wish to research the technology and issues related to digital imaging."--BOOK JACKET.
