How to Prepare Your Items for Digitizing

We recommend storing your project items in plastic bins if possible.

We ask that you organize your items with labels that state how you would like the files/folders on the drive to be labeled. These labels should be attached to the corresponding bundles as securely as possible to avoid them getting lost or mixed up or moved around during transport and processing. We do not recommend putting tape or Post-its directly onto the side of the items being scanned.

All documents need to have any staples, pins, or clips removed. We may remove any pins, staples, or clips during processing if needed. If a document or album page has post-its, tags, or other items adhered to them we will scan the page as is.
