Workflow Best Practices

Based on years of experience running digitization projects, we recommend this overall workflow for getting material into WCHO:

  1. Digitize a batch of items following our Standards for Images, Documents, or Audio-Visual Formats
  2. Rename all the files according to our File Naming Rules
  3. If necessary, create optimized (or more compact) versions of your files
  4. After you have files that are ready to upload, begin Adding Items one at a time, or prepare a Bulk Item Upload
