Hi, Janet!<br>
<br>
I’m not sure whether this is a question you can answer directly, or maybe just a presentation idea for the group.<br>
<br>
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.<br>
<br>
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?<br>
<br>
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.
<br>
<br>
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.”<br>
<br>
Thanks, and happy Thanksgiving!<br>
