The first part of the seminar will cover the stages in planning, developing, and managing digital collections with examples from different implementations. Within this framework, the presentation will cover selection, copyright, digitization, metadata creation, system and interface building, and archiving stages. Workshop participants will be offered practical strategies that represent current and emerging standards, best practices, and sound decision making. Case studies from Cornell University Library will be used to describe the various approaches and strategies. Both success and failure stories will be used to illustrate the importance of strategic planning.
Targeted Learners
This presentation is designed for librarians, digitization operation managers, and information professionals who are interested in sharpening their skills in planning, managing, and assessing digitization projects. Although technical background in digital library development will be useful, the workshop will take a managerial approach and will not assume any hands-on experience with technologies. However, familiarity with digitization initiatives will provide good background for this presentation.
Critical Learning Questions
- What is involved in planning digitization projects?
- What are the weakest points in the chain?
- How would one plan a new digitization program to his/her institution?
- What kind of skills and resources are required for success?
