Please join the DLF AIG Cost Assessment Working Group for a discussion session on digitization vendors. We will be discussing the results of the recent Vendor Registry subgroup's survey on digitization vendors, followed by breakout sessions focused on experiences with digitization equipment vendors, still image digitization service providers, and audiovisual digitization service providers. Whether you're about to start your first digitization project or have years of working with digitization vendors under your belt we invite you to come share your knowledge and learn from the experience of others!

We welcome representatives from vendor organizations to attend but request that your attendance be limited to the general discussion sessions and vendor breakout room to encourage free and open discussion. A vendor breakout room will provide an opportunity for vendors and attendees to connect, ask/answer any questions, and discuss working relationships.  This breakout room will not be a forum for any sales pitches.

This session will not be recorded but a summary of the discussions will be released. Please register for this discussion so we can gather information to help guide the discussion and provide login information forms.gle/6MbpN7p9WeG6wrUC9<http://forms.gle/6MbpN7p9WeG6wrUC9>

Meeting Information:

Monday August 14, 2023 at 3:00 PM EST.  Login information will be provided to registrants.



About the DLG AIG Cost Assessment Working Group:

A subgroup of the Assessment Interest Group, the Cost Working group is an ideal place for digital lab practitioners and managerial staff alike to come together to talk about practical ways to assess the resources necessary to plan and execute successful digitization projects.

The AIG Cost Group focuses on identifying tools that may serve a wide range of digitization efforts. Our current goal is to analyze the data collected through multiple small surveys in 2021 and 2022 and use it to inform new initiatives.

Beyond the surveys, we continue to support the project subgroups that developed from members' shared interests and work on various resources and issues. The current subgroups are insourcing vs. outsourcing, a registry for vendors, assessing scans per linear feet, best practices, and cost estimation.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the group chairs: Rachel Senese (rsenese at gsu.edu<mailto:rsenese at gsu.edu>) or Julia Simic (Jsimic at uoregon.edu<mailto:Jsimic at uoregon.edu>).
