Preserving Content from Virginia Tech's Original Digital Collections Database
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This presentation provides an overview of the process of migrating content from the digital collections platform 'Imagebase'. Far from a traditional migration process, careful scrutiny was given to the metadata, scan quality, provenance, and organization of the over 100,000 items. Each collection required a unique mapping of its metadata, and thousands of new scans were made in the Digital Imaging Lab. Some collections were also expanded with the selection and scanning of additional physical objects.
