Lucidea Press Publishes New Title for Archivists and Archival Professionals
Archivists have entered the digital decisive moment, where digitized and born-digital images have substantially departed from the legacy of analog materials. This book provides a foundation related to digitizing historical materials. It intends to be a reference for institutions converting resources to digital form while maintaining both analog and digital collections. The book advocates integrated initiatives, from selection to access to preservation, emphasizing the intersection of objectives and applications. Readers will learn to define their project needs, evaluate their options, and manage the digitization process.

She received her Master of Arts in Women’s History from Sarah Lawrence College, and holds a Master’s in Library and Information Science and a Post-Master’s in Archives & Records Management, both from Drexel University.

Says Ron Aspe, Lucidea’s CEO, “We’re excited to bring you the latest book in our “Lucidea’s Lens” series; we believe it’s an essential resource for archival professionals seeking to meet the “digital decisive moment”, with pragmatic guidance drawn from Margot’s career as a practitioner, consultant, innovator, and advocate.”
