Scanning Guidelines

General Guidelines:

  • Capture items at a resolution of at least 300dpi in a tif file format

  • Items with no copyright concerns should be saved in one folder named "No copyright concerns" (either on the computer or on a flash drive), which will be deposited by Imaging Services at full resolution using one billing code

  • Items that are still in copyright or have an unclear copyright status should be saved in a separate folder named "Copyright concerns" (either on the computer or on a flash drive) and will be deposited by Imaging Services at a reduced resolution of 72dpi using a different billing code

  • Once 500 images (or fewer) are captured, the two folders are to be hand-delivered on a single flash drive to the Head of Technical Services, who will deliver it to Imaging Services

Naming:

Creation of file name should be constructed with SKC template codes using this general example- holdings no_sequence of images_template code   

 For example:

  • Book-   091256783_01_cov1.tif

  • Serial cover with year- 004951966_01_srl_1975.tif

  • Serial cover with year and month- 019378657_01_srl_1975_June.tif

  • Serial cover with year and month day-  019378657_03_srl_1975_June_10.tif

  • Serial cover with date volume and number- 01937657_04_srl_1975_x_x_1_1.tif

  • Serial cover with date and number- 019387780_01_srl_1975_x_x_x_1.tif

  • Serial cover with number- 019414556_01_srl_x_x_x_x_1.tif

...

  1.  Once you have added all of the links you want to SAVE AS the SKC_adding_links.xlsx as a DIFFERENT and permanent file with the batch number, follow this convention:
    • Links_added_batch_[insert batch number]_drs[insert drs report number].
  2. Then erase all the data from the SKC_adding_links spreadsheet so we can use it for the next batch.
