and justify the resources needed to create, preserve and provide access to digitized collections? This session will look at the possibilities, challenges and current practices for assessing the value and impact of digitization and digital collections in libraries,
archives, museums and other cultural heritage organizations. Panelists will provide an overview of the methods, metrics and current work in this area, present the aggregate results from the most recent OhioDIG Digital Collections Analytics Survey, and review
some of our institutions’ real digitized collections with any eye toward assessment. There will be lots of time for open discussion.
