[Ohiodig] Collection evaluation and project planning assistance needed

[Laurie Arp]

Hi Amy,

LYRASIS offers digital and preservation classes and consulting.
https://www.lyrasis.org/services/Pages/Consulting.aspx

We work with these kinds of projects all the time.

I will have one of our consultants (Tom Clareson, who is in Ohio) follow up with the folks at Capital and see if we can help.

Best wishes,

Laurie Gemmill Arp

Subject: [Ohiodig] Collection evaluation and project planning assistance needed

I received an inquiry from Capital University's library about assistance with planning a digitization project. Do any of you do project planning and consultation, or can you recommend someone? Here's a brief description of the project from Rachel Rubin, Director of Library and Information Services:

"Capital University is just beginning to think about the digitization and preservation of our archives, photographs, and publications. A scanner was recently purchased, but before we put the cart before the horse we will need assistance evaluating the collection and creating a scope and plan for a comprehensive digitization initiative."

Thanks in advance,
Amy
