This project involves the digitization of a small of collection of physical resources. These resources are private in nature, but are also representative of persons, places or events that may not be directly related to a personal experience. The primary task in this work was to make digital representations of physical historical resources. As a necessary part of the project, the digital resources were presented in electronic formats. From this work, a set of guidelines for using digitizing historical resources will be developed.

The materials being digitized are artifacts and/or paper-based historical resources (e.g. photographs, letters, and records).

The digitization effort consisted of three activities, not including the presentation of the digital materials. These three digitization activities include scanning, photographing and presenting.
