Koninklijke Bibliotheek report on possible alternative file formats for master images from mass digitization projects
Posted on March 19th, 2008 by David
The Koninklijke Bibliotheek (National Library of the Netherlands) has published a report on possible alternative file formats for storing master images from mass digitization projects. According to the library, uncompressed TIFFs, its preferred format so far, take up far too much storage capacity to be a viable storage strategy for the long term. The report is available from the KB Web site at an Adobe Acrobat PDF  file at http://www.kb.nl/hrd/dd/dd_links_en_publicaties/links_en_publicaties_intro.html
