IDI understands the importance of handling one of a kind publications.
IDI treats these collections in exactly the same way it has handled rare book and manuscript collections from such institutions as the University of Minnesota, the University of Florida, the New England Genealogical Society, The University of London, National Geographic Society, the American Antiquarian Society and others who have entrusted their collections to IDI to digitize. .
We know that these books, periodicals and microfilm are critical resources of information, and that quality digitization is critical to these documents. To that end, we pay particular attention to the handling of these materials, ensuring they are returned in the same condition in which they arrived.
IDI’s backend image processing and quality control procedures adhere to stringent publishing standards. IDI also offers OCR of PDF images to enable extremely accurate keyword or phrase text searches.
