Abstract

In 2000 the National Archives of Scotland embarked on a project to digitise manuscript material dating from 1500 to 1901. This project was undertaken in conjunction with the Genealogical Society of Utah (GSU). The requirements of this project led us to implement techniques and procedures that have allowed us to capture more than 4 million images. This paper describes the various aspects of the workflow and in particular how we considered quality issues at each step..
