Project Priorities Low overhead – the project is similar to
previous projects so we can use established procedures and existing technologies
Item-level information or metadata available Complements previous projects – creation of
a critical mass Related to Indiana University or Indiana Special expertise at Indiana University Opportunity to learn from the project –
contribution to digital library development

Important Points All projects require a time commitment
from permanent staff – even if we have external funding.
Selecting one project means that others must be rejected.
We prefer to use common solutions to digital library problems, not start from scratch. Example: Need for Indiana University photo
databases to provide access to information about and digital access
