The demand from library users for audiovisual materials and remote access combined with the unceasing deterioration and inaccessibility of many audiovisual formats requires libraries to adapt their collections to meet current and future demands. While this changing landscape of digitization and resource management may seem daunting, it represents an opportunity to bolster a library's relevancy and competitiveness.

The book takes a procedural and example-rich approach to the management of digital audiovisual resources. It covers:
the selection of resources for digitization; how to managedigitization of physical audiovisual collections; how to select the best platforms for preservation and presentation; and, how to market collections once they are accessible.Among other useful features, this guide will provide readers with:
Illustrated digitization workflows; Comprehensive lists and illustrated descriptions of equipment and formats;Real-world case studies;Common U.S. copyright situations; andResources for further study and assistance.
