Kirk,

The UK's Technical Advisory Service for Images (TASI) is also helpful.

Subject: Basic Advice on Archival Digitization Project

I am looking for some basic advice on doing a personal digitization
project for archival purposes.
I am familiar with some general guidelines like: (1) multiple copies
stored in different locations, (2) reliable medium (like gold CDs), (3)
standard, open-source formats,  ... etc.  
But I am looking for some advice with more detail.  
It seems to me that NARA used to have some advice like that, but all I
could recently find was its "Technical Guidelines for Digitizing
Archival Materials for Electronic Access", which is on point--but with
87 pages long, it is much longer than I was hoping for.  
Could anyone refer me to a website that has basic advice along those
lines. 
Thanks. 
Kirk Petersen, Eldorado Spgs, Colo.
