We have several boxes of letters and photographs that are gradually suffering the ravages of time. To preserve then we are slowly scanning them in uncompressed tiff format, cataloguing the image and the original item and storing it in archival quality materials.
Only a handful of the items have been processed so far and we have learned several things. Firstly there were some very impressive people in these families. Secondly, this process takes far longer than you could possibly imagine and is really a 'winter job' when there are fewer excuses for going out. Thirdly, archival grade materials are stupidly expensive and all donations to this project are welcome!
I discovered very soon in the activity that I needed to have a system of some sort so that I knew what I was doing and what materials were archived and what were not. Here is an overview of the methods I have used to get to this point in the activity.
At the moment, searching is slightly hit and miss on this web site and only slightly better in the archive itself. Time and software upgrades may help this, but don't hold your breath!
