National Heritage Digitization Strategy [2019]. Digitization Best Practices and Recommendations."The purpose of this document is to help institutions with digitization standards. It is not meant to create a new digitization standard, but instead summarize and recommend standards already published. Additionally, it includes some considerations for the different format types to help archivists understand, interpret and use these recommended standards.
All standards were selected from Canadian resources where possible. They were selected by conducting an environmental scan, then evaluating the resources based on criteria set by the National Heritage Digitization Strategy (NHDS) such as: introductory vs. detailed information, standards that are institution specific or that were created for widespread use, age of the resource, adherence to widespread digitization practices, uptake by the community, etc." -- Introduction
