Session Details:

The CARLI Archives Task Force is pleased to host this two-day online program, "Building Digital Archives with Minimal Staffing."

Digitization can help bring your archival materials to life by making them accessible and easy to use in a variety of projects and settings. There are many reasons to start digitizing your institution’s holdings, and likely just as many stakeholders who want an institution's archival materials digitized. If you do not have a digitization department, this work can seem daunting—even if you do have a digitization department, you might have good reasons to supplement their output. This webinar will cover getting started on digitization projects in the archives when you do not have many resources.

We will cover equipment recommendations, digitization workflows, metadata, and platforms and tools for managing, accessing, and working with digitized or born digital materials. During the webinar, we will discuss advocating for resources, project planning, and documentation, along with demonstrations. Options for hands-on exploration of several content management systems will be available to registered participants.

This two-day webinar will be held on May 14 and May 15, 2025 from 2:00 - 5:00 p.m. (ET) 1:00-4:00 p.m. (CDT) on each day.

All sessions will be recorded.
