There are three main aspects to consider in the digitisation activity: first, there is obviously a requirement for some technology to perform the digitisation with; second, consideration must be given to the information that the resulting digital objects are labelled with or that is stored about them; and, third, a decision has to be made after each item has been digitised as to whether to retain it or to discard it. These topics are discussed in the following units:<\/p>\n
U5.4.1\u00a0 Digitise \u2013 Technology requirements
\nU5.4.2\u00a0 Digitise \u2013 Titles, metadata and indexes
\nU5.4.3\u00a0 Digitise \u2013 Choosing to retain or discard<\/p>\n
