Digital Photography Best Practices and Workflow Handbook: A Guide to Staying Ahead of the Workflow Curve. Burlington, MA: Focal, 2010. Print. Description An account of the resource Russotti and Anderson give a good basic outline of Digital Asset Management. In contrast, or perhaps complimentary to Peter Krogh's The DAM Book, the authors bridge the gap between novice digital photographers and more advanced practitioners. Most of the book is rooted in practical knowledge in regard to the field of digital photography and its preservation. The book urges a reorientation of visual literacy based on the relationship between digital and photography. Digital influence upon photography is evident in the way it has evolved and changed visual culture. The authors maintain that this evolution is not new and is due to technological advances that replace or modify older, existing ones. art digital images digital technologies photography http://dar.cah.ucf.edu/files/original/b70bf5205d1095d4496c2de49829fdb8.jpg 7a7c02b299ef2c618940ee68d613e3ab Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The authors state that anyone with the time, resources, and interest can take part in the recording of oral history. There are no age barriers or educational barriers when conducting interviews and the advancement in technology has made digital recorders and camcorders affordable and accessible. Community historians tend to engage in topics that they can relate to and have some bearing on their own lives and background. The authors also explore the challenges dealing with family history as well as the sensitivity needed when interviewing a subject for the first time. The authors' mission is to enable more people to practice history. Bibliographic Citation A bibliographic reference for the resource.

Title A name given to the resource Beyond the Archives Subject The topic of the resource Personal archives Description An account of the resource In this edited volume, Gesa Kirsch and Liz Rohan explore the "backstory" of what goes into an archive. They dig deep into the research, political aspects, and decisions on what to archive. Many of the essays address the considerations involved in creating personal family archives. The writers discuss the difficulties of creating an archive that caters to a specific audience and purpose, realizing that just as history is limited so are the tools used to store information. They also maintain that archival records are not easily interpreted; both creators and readers of archival records approach these records from different interested perspectives. The authors state that professional archivists must make informed decisions as to the material they will include in an archive and must be committed to the criteria that controls the establishment of an archival collection.

Description An account of the resource Gail Hodge asserts that the rapid dissemination of digital “objects” occurred with “little regard for the long-term preservation of digital information.” Given the nature of the digital world, her analysis is as relevant in 2015 as it was in 2000. In an environment where file deletion, corruption, or accessibility is a constant concern, Hodge provides a step-by-step process that outlines some best practices to avoid some of the pitfalls digital practitioners face. She argues that rapid technological advances require users to incorporate appropriate standards during the creative process. Without a systematic approach, preservation becomes problematic. To address that issue, this study surveyed a variety of institutions including libraries, research institutions, and database publishers to gather information on what best practices had helped them confront these challenges. Hodge breaks the process down into six categories: creation, acquisition, metadata, storage, preservation, and access. In each aspect of the digital life-cycle, she gives practical advice on things such as determining what and what not to archive, copyright issues, hardware and software concerns, and migration issues. In regard to preservation, Hodge asserts that one of the most important aspects is to maintain the “look and feel” of the archive, despite what technological changes occur.

Title A name given to the resource TEI: Text Encoding Initiative. Subject The topic of the resource Digital humanities Description An account of the resource The Text Encoding Initiative website gives straightforward instruction and detailed documentation on TEI, a subset of the XML markup language. The site provides a downloadable version of the TEI P5 Guidelines that gives a comprehensive overview of how to use markup language to encode primary sources within archives to make them accessible on the Web. The website also contains customized variations of TEI markups based on the needs of various disciplines that can be downloaded or adapted for particular projects. By adopting this standard language, users can harness the power of search engines by encoding “machine-readable texts.” The website also includes training resources, examples of how other institutions have implemented projects, and a wide variety of technical documentation. The TEI website is a valuable resource for learning and understanding the basics as well as the advanced application of text encoding and the broader XML language. Any digital practitioner developing their skill should make this one of their first studies.

Title A name given to the resource Omeka and Digital Archives Subject The topic of the resource Digital humanities Description An account of the resource Webinars have a unique advantage over books or journal articles in that they are interactive and allow viewers to direct questions to the host. Although no longer an interactive webinar, in this one-hour video Jim McGrath gives an overview of Omeka, the open-source content management system developed by the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media at George Mason University. McGrath explains the installation process, identifies user options (institutional vs. private server/FTP) and discusses customization options. Installing free plug-ins, such as the mapping tool Neatline, and using cloud-based applications, such as Dropbox, to migrate photographs and documents into the archive give the user flexibility in designing their archive. McGrath also addresses topics including how to use Omeka as a teaching tool in the classroom and opening the archive to accept crowd-sourced material. In this case, their Boston Marathon archive allowed visitors to the website the opportunity to upload their own pictures and share memories of the 2013 bombing. The video stresses that the ability to provide this sort of collaboration is one of Omeka’s strong points, as well as its ease of use. Once the information is archived, McGrath explains, a standard vocabulary—in this case Dublin Core—is necessary to navigate the exhibits and allow Omeka to interact with other archives.

He discussion the ownership of memory, whether political or cultural, and the political motivations behind the creation of the museum. Then, he continues to describe the design of the exhibits, explaining how archival materials were used and sometimes altered to create a particular mood. For example, photographs were not retouched, though the technology was available, because aged photographs come with greater authenticity. Ultimately, Linenthal's goal was to dissect the many layers of struggle and traumatic memory and determine how the people, ideals, and objects are best represented through curated exhibits.

Title A name given to the resource The Future of the Past Subject The topic of the resource Archives Description An account of the resource In Part II of The Future of the Past, Alexander Stiille discusses cultural memory as it relates to the National Archive and the process of digitizing and converting nontextual material to a more stable format. Stille states that, at current staff levels, it would take 120 years to transfer nontextual material to more stable digital formats. Using this example, he thus elucidates a problem pinpointed by many scholars of digital archives: eventually, information abundance starts to feel overwhelming. Furthermore, with information glut comes questions of authority and vetting processes: who is creating and controlling cultural memories?
