. . .A total of more
than 2,000 films have already been digitised. Funding has been secured
for the digitisation of a further 3,000 films. Our service provider
has just picked up 1,000 films today. We are also working intensively
on the question of how to ensure long-term preservation of the digital
copies as well as access to the materials for research purposes . . .
If I'm understanding correctly an earlier posting of Roland Steiner that:the NGMCP had photographed 9,136 microfilms, does that mean about 1/4 of the total (1000 films) have already been digitized and funding has been secured for the digitizing of another 1/3 of the total (3000 films), leaving a little less than a half of the total (4000 films) than needs funding to be digitized?
Thanks,
Harry Spier
