B. Converting Non - Digital Materials to Digital Format 8.1 List the types and formats of materials to be digitized and the quantity of each type. Isting photographs, diaries, and other written materials will be scanned according to the needs and discoveries of ch location. Each library site is expected to collect and digitize 500 -800 images for a total of between 2,000 -3,20C B.2 List the equipment and software that you will use to digitize each of these formats or the name of the digitization services provider who will perform the work. of the four library sites will include 1- GADO 2 digitization robot with a Epson Perfection V750 Pro or Epson VS scanner for high resolution TIFF scans of at least 600 DPI. The Epson Scan version 3.9.2OUS will run through an source Project GADO scanning wizard that will use an IPVEO — Ziggi HD webcam to take picture of the back of scanned image. Material will be edited using Picasa software for alignment, cropping, and batch description. assembly, installation, and trouble shooting of the Project GADO robot will encourage the scanning of robust -rials during the initial implementation period. Once the machine is fully operational, more sensitive photographic trial may be scanned as well. B.3 List the digital file formats (e.g., TIFF, JPEG, MPEG) that you will produce during the digitization work and the anticipated quality standards for each file format (e.g., resolution, bit - depth, color /grayscale, pixel dimensions, sampling rate). workflow process for the creation of digital photographs will include both TIFF and JPEG file formats for servation and access purposes. The TIFF files will be used for long term preservation needs at a DPI of 600 with 24- color and zero Color /BW compression. The JPEG files will be used to upload the images onto Historypin. These files also be hi- resolution files of at least 600 DPI with a 24 bit -color standard. are saving our audio files according to the recommendations of the ARSC standards found here: content gathered during the project will be saved at a 961<Hz sample rate with 24 bits per channel as an B.4 If different digital versions of content will be created during the digitization process (e.g., preservation master, access copy, thumbnail) list the type, format, and number of each version. Memories of Migration will work with each of the site partners to identify the best process by which at least 3 versio of User Generated Content can be created and saved. The process is to include at least "Preservation Copy 1," "Preservation Copy 2" (in a separate location), and an "Access Copy' (compressed file format). The project will work with the participating partners to create and implement a step by step guide to be used in the final iteration of the "jumpkit" with the intent of permanent retention by each participating institution and the Internet Archive. Photographic preservation copies will be in the form of TIFF files while access copies will be converted to JPEGs. Audio content will be saved as WAV file for preservation copies and as a To- Be- Determined file type for access copies. 2 IMLS Digital Content Supplementary Information Form 20B -95
