Theory into Practice: Cornell's Digital Imaging Tutorial
- The Department of Preservation and Conservation of Cornell University
Library announces the public release of its online digital imaging
tutorial, Moving Theory into Practice. Although designed as an
adjunct to the recently published book and workshop series known
by the same name, the tutorial can also serve as a standalone
introduction to the use of digital imaging to convert and make
accessible cultural heritage materials. The tutorial consists
of sections encompassing all the major aspects of digital imaging:
Selection, Conversion, Quality Control, Metadata, Technical Infrastructure,
Presentation, Digital Preservation, and Management. Designed to
be self-guided and self-paced, the tutorial includes frequent
"reality checks" for evaluating the understanding of the presented
material. Most sections are heavily illustrated, and provide suggestions
for further reading. The tutorial also includes several tables,
providing reference data on topics such as graphic file formats,
compression techniques, scanner characteristics, and institutional
guidelines

- Exploring
Charging Models for Digital Cultural Heritage
- The full final report for the HEDS study. The purpose of this
study (on behalf of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation) is to investigate
some of the underlying assumptions being made in the move from
previously analog photographic services into the realm of digital
capture and delivery, in particular to look at how marketable,
cost efficient and income-stable the new digital services and
resources are in comparison with previous methods (which in many
places still exist alongside the newer digital developments).
The study, through interviews and comparative modelling of costs
and fees charged, illuminated the differences in practice for
the sale of analog versus digital formats.
