End Semester: seminar on digitizing printed books

The summer semester ended on Thursday, with a seminar held by J. C. Grycz, curator of books at The Internet Archive and founder of the non-profit organization Libraries without Walls (if you browse through the site, you may want to check the digital illustrated editions of Alice in Wonderland). The seminar introduced issues related to the selection, digital capture, storage and online presentation of printed materials made available in digital form.

If you are interested in digitization, a book recommended by J. C. Grycz is Digital Heritage. Applying Digital Imaging to Cultural Heritage, edited by Lindsay MacDonald.
