Assessment Working Group and the DLF Project Managers Working Group on a joint
discussion session on digitization workflow tools. We will be discussing the
various tools used to manage the post capture workflows such as: Goobi, LIMB
Processing, Capture One, PixelFlow, Opus FreeFlow and WorkFlow among
others.  We invite all who are interested in the topic and those who have
worked with these tools to share their experience and knowledge pertaining to
any cost analysis, project management analysis and overall
functionality.  </span></p>
