  • Priorities in the digitization of books, documents, photos and modern approaches to the promotion of digitized materials

The DigiPrior project is implemented under the Erasmus+ sub-programme "Cooperation Partnerships in Vocational Education and Training". The project aims to increase the capacity of librarians, managers of small and medium-sized libraries and archives on:

  • how to select books, documents and photographs
  • for priority digitisation;
  • how to maintain digital archives
  • how to promote and use already digitised materials in learning, with a focus on young people
  • how to promote the use of digital content;

The project will develop products and collaborate with partners in the field of continuing vocational education and training (further training, extra-curricular training)

 

Intended outcomes:

  • Methodology for selecting materials (prioritization) for digitization;
  • Knowledge management system (LMS) with training modules on how to prioritize materials for digitalization; Structured as units of learning outcomes and ECVET approach to assess learning outcomes; Competency framework
  • Short digital films with examples of why an item has been selected for digitisation and processing, these films will be appropriate for training (and linked to LMS content)
Training events, multiplier events and peer-to-peer meetings are also provided.

Regional Library "Petko R. Slaveykov" - Veliko Tarnovo (Bulgaria), Student Society for Computer Art - Sofia (Bulgaria), George Baritiu County Library - Brasov (Romania), The Domijnen Foundation (Netherlands), Mafra National Palace Library (Portugal).
