Abstract:
Digitisation of manuscripts aims to stimulate a responsible approach to the sources from
which our historical consciousness grows and to contribute to the general availability of
information about our history and culture. The project plan aims to initiate and to support
the safeguarding of existing documents not only for this generation but also for the future
ones.
The present paper seeks to outline some of the issues surrounding digitisation at the moment.
It does not attempt to provide complete solutions or recommendations regarding hardware,software, resolutions, etc. Instead it provides recommendations applicable to the strategic
planning level, with particular reference to the Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University Library, Aurangabad.
