66 Areas of my plan that require collaboration Because we don’t have a department dedicated to digitizing, the planning and development of digital collections involves staff from many library departments. Possibilities for collaborating within my institution Once we get the hang of planning and developing collections, we can involve other university departments (digital humanities, history, etc) Possibilities for collaborating with other Institute members Opportunities for collaboration DigCCurr Professional Institute
