Collections of digitized cultural materials are becoming common in libraries, archives, and museums. However, many small and midsize institutions have found the creation of such collections to be difficult given organizational priorities and budgetary and staff restrictions. Monson’s book seeks to explain the basics of creating and sharing digital collections in ways that will allow smaller organizations to work on a scale suited to their needs and available resources.Published
