Abstract:
Our experience in maintaining digital collections is described, which
urged us to go deep in the process and build centralized digitalization policy. It
instigated developing new strategy, adopting new technological solutions and
staff training. The emphasis falls is placed on our digital collection “Bulgarian
Cultural Heritage Materials” as an example of a focused digitization at the New
Bulgarian University (NBU) Library and our answer to modern trends in
launching digital collections. Our future digitization plans are also discussed.
