Indigitization

At the Spokenweb conference last summer I heard Gerry Lawson talk about the Indigitization.ca project for which he is the Technical Lead. This is a neat project at UBC that has kits, guides, and small grants for indigenous communities to “facilitate capacity building in Indigenous information management.” Communities can get a kit that lets them video their elders to create a digital archive of their cultural information. They do it them selves with help from the Indigitization projet.

They have a great Toolkit with guides on all sorts of subjects. The image above is from the Digital Storage guide. These guides are useful to anyone doing digitization projects!
