CHARTER will select, digitise and deposit 2000 new images and will transfer another 2000 existing images (held in the online EVE database facility of the University’s museum, the Bill Douglas Centre) into the repository. This will include the creation of 2000 new metadata records and the creation of a tool for transferring 2000 metadata records from EVE into the repository. The selection theme of the 2000 new images will be popular culture in the longnineteenth- century, 1800-1914, drawn from across the University’s special collections (Bill Douglas Centre, plus Archives & Rare Books). This material has no IPR or copyright issues and has interdisciplinary subject appeal through a wide academic bas...

The 2000 new items selected for digitisation through CHARTER will have a focus on the long-nineteenth-century, 1800-1914, and will be drawn from across the University’s special collections (Bill Douglas Centre, plus Archives & Rare Books). One of the selection criteria will be that there are no IPR issues associated with these items. The 2000+ existing images transferred from EVE through CHARTER all relate to popular culture but a proportion have dates post-1914. All will be transferred to the new repository to aid their long-term preservation. As summarised in the Risk Log, there are IPR issues associated with a small proportion of these images, but these were cleared and/or have not been challenged during the 5 years the EVE facility has been available online. Evidence already exists as to the underlying quality, s...
