Dear group,
I wonder if anyone could confirm something for me. A department in my organisation would like to digitise their social services records. These are 75 year records. Am I right in assuming that they would need to create a TIFF master copy (not be accessed) and to be saved onto a high quality CD of DVD; and a JPEG access copy also on high quality CD or DVD? I am assuming that the digitised copy will become the master record and the paper records will be destroyed.
Any thoughts would be welcome.
Kind regards,
Kathy Shiel
