Digitization & Specialized Databases
Transforming print collections into searchable, accessible digital resources, and designing specialized databases to organize institutional and research content and retrieve it efficiently.
Digitization is a knowledge-organization project, not just document imaging. We plan how collections are converted and indexed, and build specialized databases that make content searchable and retrievable.
Digitization complements repository platforms such as DSpace: digitization produces and organizes digital content, while the repository preserves it and makes it available.
