I assume
that many of us are increasingly involved with projects that require the
digitization of analog formats for archival purposes, typically including the
need to provide at least some cataloguing for each asset.
My
question to the list: Has anyone found a vendor with whom they have been
able to work successfully on such projects? I am most-interested in the
following:
-
consistent quality of the digitization efforts
-
quality and accuracy of the attendant cataloguing
-
quality of the project management skills of the vendor
-
costs
(In
brief, the next project on the table here is relatively straightforward:
scanning paper records - index cards from a large card-catalog - keying in
catalog information to identify each new digital asset, delivering the
project on-time and on-budget).
While
I understand that most of us are unable by policy to "endorse"
particular vendors, I am still interested in a few leads so that I
can describe the project to a few vendors and then evaluate their
proposed solutions.
Thank
you,
Douglas
