Info

Specialized photography (Selene System, Multispectral Imaging, RTI, Photogrammetry)  for materials from PUL’s Special Collections or Collaborators will require a partnership between a subject specialist and a member of our IT digital studio staff who is proficient in the photography system(s) being discussed. Both individuals contribute their skills equally to help identify research questions and submit requests for specialized photography in order to support researchteaching, broaden training opportunities, or provide better user experience for researchers and staff working with our digital collections. Specialized photography opportunities add immense value to our collections as well as to our applications, while at the same time giving staff members the opportunity to work with colleagues, collaborators, and materials they might not usually interact with.

Once all photography and deliverables are complete, the Digital Studio photographer marks the item ready for review, and an e-mail to the subject specialist with Kim cced is sent, letting them know the deliverables are ready for download and/or review. The subject specialist is responsible for reviewing the deliverables, as well as any requests for restricting the visibility of specialized photography outputs in our applications. If everything looks good, the subject specialist approves the completion of the research request and lets the Digital Studio photographer and Kim know via email. If changes are needed, the subject specialist can request those changes or another meeting with the Digital Studio via the same email thread as the review request.  

Helpful Hint: The Digital Studio has the bandwidth to accept up to 2 (two) formal consultations per request before the request is closed.

What if I want training in software that allows me to work with the Studio filesets myself?

The Digital Studio will prepare and make available all deliverables for download for those wishing to work with the filesets themselves. If you are interested in training and working with filesets in software like Global Mapper at one of our workstations, please contact our colleagues in the Digital Scholarship department to schedule a time with them for a training consultation.
