Still Image Consultant Statement of Work

C.1. OVERVIEW / BACKGROUND

The Library supports multiple still image digitization programs converting books, manuscripts, maps, photographs, and film to digital form. These efforts are a component of the Library’s digital strategy, producing millions of digital images per year.

Essential to this effort are the Library’s ongoing digitization monitoring and standards development programs. All Library digitization units and contractors rely on these to assure consistent, high quality imaging, both within a project and spanning multiple projects. In addition to the Library’s efforts to digitize our vast holdings, the Library leads the Federal Agencies Digital Guideline Initiative (FADGl). FADGI 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 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”.

The digitization staff at The Library of Congress have worked in close coordination with expert still image consultants as part of continually occurring efforts to provide the best possible information in the FADGI Still Image guidelines and the best possible deliverables from digitization work.

Prior work performed under this contract has previously supported the creation of the FADGI Still Image program, specialized color targets used in digitization processes and software used to analyze the color targets.
