Mass Digitization Collaborative New Member Orientation

This one hour session is intended for those who have recently decided to participate in the LYRASIS Mass Digitization Collaborative. It is intended for those who have submitted an order and are ready to proceed. It provides an orientation to the project as well as more specific information about the process, and steps necessary for digitization including selection, metadata retrieval and shipping.

Description:

Lyrasis' new Mass Digitization Collaborative offers members the opportunity to contribute materials to a regional mass digitization project. Lyrasis facilitates the process by selecting vendors and developing a collaborative collection development policy, guidelines, standards, and workflows. The Collaborative is funded by the Lyrasis membership and supported in part through a grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. The full project was originally opened to all PALINET members in October 2008.
