A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats: Building A Collaborative Workflow for Digital Collections

Description

In preparation for a migration to a new digital asset management system, the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC) Library revamped their workflow for digital collections, taking a fresh look at how physical content that was chosen for digitization was preserved and described. The old workflow was ad hoc and varied from project to project. The new workflow laid out clear guidelines and established step by step procedures that made making content available more quickly. It is also a cross-departmental collaboration of Stakeholders from the Digital Programs & Services, Resource Acquisition & Management, and Special Collections & University Archives. This poster showcased the old vs the new workflows and highlight the results of the new workflow.
