Imaging Service Center for Northern California Libraries is an LSTA
(Library Services and Technology Act) -funded project administered by the
Mountain Valley Library System in Sacramento, CA. Its purpose is to
allow regional libraries access to quality digitization and to develop
useful and consistent standards for digitizing and for recording
searchable data to access the resulting images.
The project provides wider use of and preservation of little-known
but historically important materials, a service libraries have up to now
found difficult to offer. It will also test the feasibility of the
service center concept, while helping to develop standards for and to
further the growth of the Library of California.
