Our focus this month on digitization projects looks at how you can get those local gems out of the attic and onto the web. Guest Editors Lori Bell, Joe Natale, Alyce Scott, and Tom Peters have put together articles containing a glossary of digitization terms, best practices for digitization projects, examples of projects by small libraries, and some new ways to make digital archives accessible to the visually impaired. They also profile some model programs of the Illinois State Library: the Illinois State Wide Archival Technology Team, and the Illinois Digital Archives.
