WNYLRC Webinar: Digitization, Metadata, and CONTENTdm: Partnering to Build Your Digital Collections

May 19, 2020 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm EDT

When preparing to outsource a digitization project, what exactly should you expect? What advantages does your vendor bring to the table? Which steps will you outsource, and which steps might your staff handle in-house to reduce costs? In this webinar presentation, representatives from Backstage Library Works offer a vendor perspective on preparing for digitization projects. They’ll also answer your questions. Topics of conversation will include:

  • Identifying your audience so you can plan to meet your users’ needs.
  • Organizing your collection to minimize material preparation costs from your vendor.
  • Leveraging a vendor’s capacity to scale up digital image production. Choosing sources of metadata and defining what information will be collected.
  • Working with a vendor to build your CONTENTdm collection
