This is the audio version of the blog post 'On Visiting the British Library's Imaging Studios'. The post was written by Carol Budd, a volunteer with the Courtauld Connects Conway Library digitisation project. It was first published on 9 June 2017. This audio version is read by Bill Bryant, who is also a digitisation volunteer.
In this blog, Carol recounts a visit to the British Library's imaging studios. Volunteers at the Courtauld frequently visit other digitisation projects, to put our project into context, and find out more about the wider world of digital preservation and archives, and open access. The British Library kindly organised a host of talks during the visit, and volunteers heard from Fiona Clancy, Studio Manager, and Stella Wisdom and Rossitza Atanassova, Digital Curators. Did you know? The British Library are digitising their own collections, which include sound and websites, and they also offer services to other organisations and for commercial purposes. Listen to find out more!
