Book Cradle System SOW
C.1 OVERVIEW / BACKGROUND
The Library of Congress (Library) has a rich history of performing digitization activities to digitize materials in the collection for use by a variety of stakeholders including Library staff, Library patrons, researchers, the public, federal agencies, members of Congress and countless others around the world. The Library supports multiple still image digitization programs converting books, manuscripts, maps, photographs, and film to digital form. The Library’s collection items come in all sizes, ranging from microscopic to very large.
These efforts are a component of the Library’s digital strategy, producing millions of digital images per year. In addition to the Library’s efforts to digitize its vast holdings, the Library leads the Federal Agencies Digital Guideline Initiative (FADGl) Still Image Working Group (FADGI Still Image). FADGI Still Image establishes the imaging standards and metrics for all Federal agencies and as such serves an essential role for digitization efforts for the entire cultural heritage community. FADGl Still Image also publishes documents providing guidance for the cultural heritage imaging community. These documents are used worldwide, establishing a common framework for digitization which conforms to various International Standards Organization (ISO) standards. Principal among these is the "Technical Guidelines for Digitizing Cultural Heritage Materials”.
This is an effort to procure additional essential digitization hardware systems to continue the Library’s digitization work on items that are considered large or oversize books. The Library has been digitizing large/ oversize books since the start of digitization efforts and expects to continue to do so for the foreseeable future.
C.2 SCOPE

Ability to support books or other materials completely flat during image capture with glass.

The contractor shall allow the Library, at its discretion, to purchase an additional warranty at the end of the original warranty period.
