Managing the Intangible: Creating, Storing, and Retrieving Digital Surrogates of Historical Materials
21st Preservation Conference
April 30 and May 1, 2007
About the Conference
This conference gave attendees an opportunity to hear a comprehensive discussion on the essential components of the digital reformatting process through the lens of preservation. The conference presenters described the technical details of digitizing records and objects including the tools workflows and skills required in the digitization process.
Mini-conference sessions covered the specific issues associated with digitization of so-called static media (still photography, textual and cartographic records, microfilm) and dynamic media (audio, video and motion pictures).
