Should [the materials] be digitized? Is the collection important
enough, is there enough audience demand, and can sufficient
value be added through digitization to make it worth the cost
and effort?
May they be digitized? Does the institution have the
intellectual property rights to permit legal creation and
dissemination of a digital version?
Can they be digitized? Will digitization achieve the goals of the
project, given the physical nature of the materials and their
organization, arrangement, and description? Does the
institution have the technical infrastructure and expertise to
create digital files and make them available to users now and
in the future?
