Reflections on a Digital Project: Digitizing Diversity Presented by Karen Feeney, Amy Ruhe, & Corrine Luthy (aka The Digitelles) at NCLA 2015 Background image from all-free-downloads.com

Why did we apply for a grant? What was the purpose of the Grant? We Applied for a Grant to digitize our archive collections. We decided on the EZ Digitization Grant because we determined that hiring staff was essential to complete the project. The purpose was to increase user access to regionally diverse collections by following trends of diversification in archives.

According to 2012 census data, women represent 52.5 % and African Americans 27.1% of the population of Forsyth County.
