Produktbeschreibung

This book is a research report on the status of digitization in Federal University libraries in South East zone of Nigeria. It is a valuable resource on the prospects and challenges of digitization in most developing countries of the world. The book adopts an empirical research approach to cover almost all the core aspects of digitization in libraries especially as it affects developing countries. It is intended for institutions, libraries, research centres and other information centres that are embarking on the digitization of their local content materials especially in the present digital/hybrid library environment. This book will appeal to a wider audience across library and information related disciplines. It is expected to be an invaluable resource to undergraduates and postgraduates in information science. The book addresses the purpose for digitization in libraries, facilities/resources used, types of resources digitized, problems affecting the digitization of library resources and strategies for effective digitization.
