Digitisation, Scanning & Laser Printing

Digitisation

• Ensures that unique, valuable content is preserved in digital form.
• It can be a back up in case the original is lost or damaged.
• If the original is too fragile to be handles it can be put in storage & a facsimile can be made or the information accessed on a disc.
• It can improve access to collections.
• Digitilisation can be carried out at the same time as conservation work.

Scanning

• In most cases scanning can be carried out without disbinding if the margin is good enough.
• If the book needs to be disbound this is done by skilled conservation staff.
• We can scan upto 440mm x 305mm.

Laser Printing

• High quality printing upto 440mm x 305mm.

Photo Scanning

• Scanned & digitised and saved to disc or printed.
• Enlarged or reduced in size.
• The originals can be safely stored in an archival box.
