The Royal Library (KB) of Sweden harbours great collections of different objects through a special law from 1661. This master degree paper is exploring a part of KB’s digitisation of those collections. It deals with the questions about what the KB had chosen for digitisation, why those choices were maid and who is responsible for making these decisions. The paper will also for example seek out different patterns and trends in the information. The questions were answered through examining10 of the KB’s earlier digitisation projects and tests with qualitative methods: personal interviews, interviews by phone and questionnaires. The interviews and questionnaires were performed with informants at KB. General information about KB’s digitisation and the results from the interviews and questionnaires are presented partly with each individual test and project and partly in two analyse tables. KB had chosen different kinds of objects from their collections, for example older books and posters. The main reasons for digitising objects and collections were preserving and giving access to the collections and objects. The copyright were important to notice and there were also marketing of the collections and the testing of technology. The people responsible for the decision-making were partly KB’s head council and partly the informants involved with the projects. / Uppsatsnivå: D

The purpose of this bachelor thesis is to examine the similarities and differences between best practice literature regarding digitization and an existing cultural heritage digitization project. It also aims to determine whether this literature is of any help during an actual project of digitization. These results were achieved by examining literature regarding best practices in digitization and analyzing how well an actual project correlates to this advice. The information about the Digidaily project was obtained through two qualitative interviews as well as the project blog. The outcome of our research showed that although there are a great many similarities between theory and practice, the project in question was not helped by literature. However the outcome suggests that it might be of great help to smaller, less experienced institutions.

Slutord Nå, Rektorns ord den gången i gymnasiet åstadkom att jag nästan tvångsmässigt ägnar mig åt ställningstaganden där jag väljer med baktanken att inte låta Rektorn få rätt när han menar att eftersom jag inte anpassar mig kommer jag att få ångra det i hela mitt liv. Han tycker jag var feg som smet från lektionerna. Själv tycker jag att jag tar strid för min sak och lyckas hantera min omdömesförmåga och att jag växer med det, men det är lite jobbigt att inte få vara lite feg ibland för då kommer han fram den där Rektorn, som gubben i lådan, med sin sura min och överlägsna attityd. Kanske bör jag träna på att fly och vara lite feg. För ett tag sedan ställde jag in tre möten som jag skulle hålla i och som jag varken orkar eller vill vara med om. Det gick bra men Rektorn ser så opassande glad ut och det gillar jag inte, men det är kanske något som jag behöver lära mig att leva med… Jag har med denna essä velat undersöka praktisk kunskap så som den ter sig för mig, och jag har genom att identifiera ett dilemma använt detta som en forskarfråga och applicerat denna på några situationer för att studera hur min egen tysta praktiska kunskap hanterar dilemmat i fråga. I min berättelse finns dilemmat på flera plan. Dels att inte kunna skriva får sin lösning i just skrivandets förlösande praktik. Jag har velat åskådliggöra detta genom den egna skrivarprocessen och vad den behöver i form av näring för att tankegods ska transporteras från hjärna till händer och fingrar för att sedan landa på ett stycke papper. Dels i den tysta kunskap som processen att skriva ska utmynna i en berättelse om. Eller annorlunda uttryckt – processen att skriva blir en tyst kunskap och grunden för den berättelse den är resultatet av. Dilemmat att välja rätt väg får inte sin lösning men väl sin förklaring genom en händelses starka påverkan där rätt väg speglas i ljuset av att inte vilja vara feg och att rättfärdiga det val jag gjort för att gå stärkt ur denna händelse. Utkomsten av detta dilemma har bildat en kunskap som jag har med mig varthän jag går. Om denna kunskap används på rätt sätt låter jag vara osagt men den är en viktig del vid valet av åtgärd och där jag står med viljan att göra rätt och att göra upp med ett gammalt dilemma. / <p>Stockholms dramatiska högskola</p>

The aim of this study is to compare how three local librarieshandle their collections, and to compare this with handlingcollections at national level. I have investigated librarian’sopinions of their collections and how they take care andpreserve them for the future. It has also been studied if thelibraries collections of old material contains more than justold book rarities.In this study I had compared my respondents answer withSvante Beckman and Magdalena Hillström`s theory ofmuseum`s four idealtypes. Their view of a museum is in theforms of a treasury, archive, school and a theatre. Theanswers of the interviews are compared with the fourdifferent ideals from the museum, and from that conclusionsare drawn. The main method that I have used for this study isqualitative interviews that handle different aspects ofthis subject. My respondents have been four differentlibrarians from three local libraries in three counties.The results of the study were that all three libraries saw thattheir collections both have a regional and national value, andthey represent both the social and cultural history of thatcounty. Another result was that all three libraries felt that theaudience should have the pleasure to view both the originalof the collections and digital versions. Finally the studyshowed that the libraries would like that older collections inlibraries should get the same protection as Cultural Heritage. / Program: Bibliotekarie

This master thesis is an attempt to analyze and compare the work being done to digitize the phonograph record collections of The National Library of Sweden (KB) and the Record archive of the Swedish Radio. Through interviews, official documents and newspaper articles the methods of digitization and the reasoning behind these methods are explored in order to answer the questions of what the purpose and goals of the digitization efforts are, what similarities and differences can be found in the digitization methods of the two archives, how these differences can be explained and how the digital files function as a representation of the analog object. The two archives are found to have a common goal of providing access to their collections through digitization, but the Royal Library has a greater emphasis on digitization as a means of preservation of the cultural heritage. This largely mirrors the overall objectives of the organizations. At present, both archives only digitize on demand, and choose not to scan the record covers. However, KB has a long term goal to digitize the entire collection, with covers. Overall, the Royal Library adhere more closely to archival standards and have better trained personnel. Neither of the archives are found to be fully utilizing the possibilities of digitization as a new way to represent the original objects, but are rather primarily adding a sound file to existing catalogs.
