Abstract

In times of limited resources, staff, finance and expertise in local heritage organisations are all at a premium. It makes sense for cultural institutions to collaborate in promoting their collections and, thereby, to foster public interest in the local history of their communities.

One of the most exciting ways of giving access to local history source material is through digitisation, both on CD-Roms and on the internet. Digitisation projects can be overwhelming to any one organisation, but not if supported by a team of partners. In North Yorkshire (England) a library service joined up with an archives service, a museum and other neighbouring library authorities to publish a website of digitised photos www.northyorks.gov.uk/unnetie, a CD-Rom and other publicity material.

With another project in progress, the archives and the library service is working together with representatives of the teachers in North Yorkshire (England) to produce a CD-Rom with a case study, that will inform schools and the education department as to what local studies information is held in libraries and the archives.

Lastly, the library service has linked with a commercial company to produce a website of digitised photographs of a North Yorkshire town and its area www.rowleycollection.co.uk collected over many years by a local historian.

Individually no one institution could be totally successful with any of these projects. The co-operating partners bring together their individual source material and discuss the projects from their differing historical backgrounds and disciplines. Everyone gains in experience. Digitisation has given the public new access to collections. The combination of co-operation and digitisation has been of advantage to everyone.
