Description

Fiolek presented a summary of several projects and metadata exchange efforts conducted by the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Central Library. In giving details about one of the projects, Fiolek stated that for the last ten years the library has been cooperating with the NOAA Climate Database Modernization Program. As a result of this collaborative effort, more than 250,000 print documents have been scanned to PDF and TIFF formats, over 800 analog media converted into DVD, MOV, MP4, and AVI formats, and around 75,000 photographs born digitally or converted to high and regular resolution JPEG files for the NOAA Photo Library.
