Digital Document Preservation Services
Preserving the Past and Present for the Future
The document preservation services provided by Anderson Archival can mean the difference between physical documents destroyed by time and natural disaster and a beautiful digital collection presented to your organization, or even the world.
The process of digital preservation involves the careful scanning of originals, image cleanup of scans, expert “reading” through OCR of that text, and presentation with our proprietary database software or another method completely catered to your needs.
But what can Anderson Archival preserve? The options are nearly endless—we are experts in providing solutions to archival problems—and we can’t wait to hear about your collection and tailor a digital preservation solution for you.
Books
Whether old or new, bound collections have specific needs in order to digitize without damaging the original material.
Correspondence
Just because a collection isn't bound doesn't mean it can be shoved through a document feeder without care for the physical copy.
Periodicals
Newspapers, magazines, and journals all come with their own challenges, from brittle paper to glossy glare obscuring the page.
Photographs
Photographs have been around a long time, producing many forms of photo processing. Not all types can be scanned the same way.
Company Records
Businesses have extensive collections of documents, both historical and of everyday use, that can benefit from digitization.
