- Identify a collection of printed text, slides, photographs, or other material to be digitized.
- Before proceeding any further, work with a consultant in the
Library to review scanning and metadata standards for your project.
Contact Ann Montanaro in the Library Systems Department, 732-445-5896
for assistance in getting started.
- Scan images following these basic established standards.
a. Scan at a minimum of 600 dpi.
b. Use TIFF format, uncompressed. (JPEGs are acceptable but not recommended for archival storage.)
c. For color photographs and documents the color space should be sRGB, at 24 bit truecolor. 8 bits per channel is required for Luna Insight processing.
d. For black and white documents and photographs the color space should be grayscale.
