Digitisation. A Project Planning Checklist
The document offers practical guidance to those considering a digitisation project. It takes the form of a check-list of strategic issues which need to be addressed in a project\'s design phase. The issues follow the life course of a digital resource from its inception through to its development, maintenance and use. It does so because decisions taken about a digital resource at any one stage of its life will have ramifications for decisions which will be or have been taken about it at other stages.
