Dear All,
Though not about public library digitisation projects there is a great deal
of information about digitisation in the HE sector available through the
JISC website:
http://www.jisc.ac.uk
I strongly recommend that you approach their site from their 'glossary'
page, as long as you know the acronym you are looking for!
Apart from the final reports from the eLib projects you can also reach the
AHDS (Arts and Humanities Digitisation Service) website from there. AHDS
provide information and practical advice for the HE sector, and possibly
consultancy to other sectors (you will have to check on that). Their site
is packed with very useful material.
Best regards,
Caroline Moss-Gibbons
