Hi, Janet!

I’m not sure whether this is a question you can answer directly, or maybe just a presentation idea for the group.

The Information Age has afforded even us consumers the ability to collect thousands of digital media files – so much that, like libraries, it’s a challenge to retrieve what we need. For example: searching, between his death and his wake, for all the photos and videos of grandpa.

Are you aware of any durable standards, tools, or tips for consumers to organize and index digital images and videos, such as home movies, especially after they have been digitized?

By “durable,” I mean that they are still likely to be efficiently searchable, in 10 or even 20 years, After cloud websites have either closed or started charging a lot, and after technology and standards have evolved.

I wouldn’t mind driving down to Central Ohio to ask your members in person, but thought it would be wise to ask first whether I’m “barking up the right tree.”

Thanks, and happy Thanksgiving!
