The article provides insights into the planning, management, and implementation requirements for such an undertaking that can apply to both individual public library digitization projects as well as regional and statewide digitization efforts. The article offers a framework for creating a statewide digital public library, identifies issues, and makes recommendations that public libraries, state library agencies, and others should consider when considering the development of digital public library content and services.
