Using Kodak Photo CD Technology for Preservation and Access:  Guide
for Librarians, Archivists, and Curators by  R. Kenney and Oya Y.
Rieger           http://www.library.cornell.edu/preservation/pub.htm

Cornell University Library Department of Preservation and Conservation
has just published a brochure summarizing the findings of a study to
evaluate the use of Kodak Photo CD technology for preserving and
making available a range of research materials. Funded by a grant from
the New York State Education Department's Program for the Conservation
and Preservation of Library Research Materials, the study was
conducted in cooperation with the eleven New York State comprehensive
research libraries. In addition, six other institutions participated
in investigating the applicability of the findings.

Building on the work undertaken at Cornell on digital capture
requirements for text-based materials, the project was designed to
evaluate the Photo CD technology by controlling the factors affecting
image quality during photography, digitization, and on-screen viewing.
The study involved only paper-based documents, and was limited to
documents scanned using the basic Kodak Photo CD method (Image Pac).
