1. Greeks & Librarians SUNY Delhi’s Digital Archives Project Greek Archives Intern: Jerry Resilien Librarian: Angela Rhodes

2. Digital Archives Collection: Greek Materials Online collection of the Greek Organizations Images, information, & history Dig into the library’s archive collection and digitize Community collection: interaction with users, Greeks, and librarians Springboard for other digital archive projects

3. Research & Rubric Type of software (download or browser) Cost (free is good) Metadata capabilities (how well can we name) File Storage Capacity (images = big Gigs) Reliability / Longevity (are they fly by night?) Support (what if something breaks?) Tagging / Comments (can viewers interact?) Searching (is it easy to find something?) Visual Display (how pretty is it?)

4. Things we Kept In Mind What’s the purpose? Who will maintain the collection? Will this last forever? It’s a lot of images to digitize. What’s the cost? Will we use this to do other projects?
