Abstract
Handbook for Digital Projects is the textbook from the Northeast Document Conservation Center's (NEDCC) popular workshop, the School for Scanning. The contributors are librarians, archivists, museum staff, and cultural heritage collections administrators, and many are past and present instructors for the School. Currently there are numerous sources of information for academic librarians who wish to undertake digitizing projects. The great value of this handbook is that it includes not only the necessary technical information, such as how to scan to create different levels of image quality, digital image formats, and the equipment needed to set up an imaging facility, but also the larger, human resource issues involved. The latter includes how to justify digitization projects, how to select materials for digitization, copyright, sharing institutional experience, and expertise through cooperative projects, and preservation.
