Images : What are the key issues?

Copyright can derail a project before it has begun and all but the smallest projects need funding. Planning lets you focus on what needs to be done and it also helps you measure success. You'll need somewhere to store all of those digitised items and some way of finding them again. You might also want to control who accesses your items. Digital items are surprisingly easy to lose so you may have to do some work to preserve them for the longer term.
