<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Outsourcing Newspaper Digitization </b>12/1<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="https://www.lyrasis.org/Pages/EventDetail.aspx?Eid=C140B048-954A-E611-80CF-00155D0A8824">https://www.lyrasis.org/Pages/EventDetail.aspx?Eid=C140B048-954A-E611-80CF-00155D0A8824</a>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.0pt">Newspapers are an important part of historical documentation. They record a range of important local and national history, but are also a challenging format to preserve and to digitize. Newspapers are large
items that contain a huge amount of varied information, just one factor that makes them a good format to outsource for digitization. This class will review factors to consider when selecting a vendor, establishing a contract with a vendor, and effective communication
and project management throughout the project. It will also cover best practices for newspaper digitization and other technical considerations. It will touch briefly on managing digital files but is not an in-depth digital preservation class.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.0pt">Join us to dig in to this special topic and leave with practical information that you can apply to contemporary crowdsourcing projects. The instructors will focus on applying basic definitions common in crowdsourcing
but also point to a number of model projects that can be found in archives, museums, scientific collections, libraries and other organizations that we can learn from. The class will examine infrastructure needs, successful workflows, and lessons learned.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.0pt">In addition, the class will also talk about how crowdsourcing projects can be used to:
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
