Workshops

This project has been about both a product and a process. Beyond scanning, cataloging, and providing access to 12,000 historic images, the project was an exercise in capacity-building, seeking to transfer the knowledge and skills needed to replicate this product from the two lead partners to the smaller organizations.

The project staff, professional staff of the lead organizations, and members of the grant's advisory committee provided technical assistance through a series of workshops covering every step involved in digitization, including selecting images and creating metadata to national standards. The workshops also addressed issues surrounding photo sales and licensing, including copyright protection and permission rights.
