PLANNING FOR DIGITIZATION
BRINGING DOWN ANOTHER BARRIER TO ACCESS
Sponsored by:
Western Council of State Libraries
September 17-19, 1998
Denver Public Library
Denver, Colorado
Successful digitization projects involve much more than simply scanning
documents and mounting them on the World Wide Web. Collaborative
digitization projects hold promise and open opportunities, but they also
present complications and potential barriers to success.
Western Council of State Librarians will present a national two-day
conference designed to equip state libraries and museums with knowledge
of issues they should address in planning statewide digitization projects.
CONFERENCE PARTICIPANTS:
State Librarians, librarians, museum and archives staff, and
other governmental agencies who would logically cooperate in
digitizing information in their states.
