In the past decade, the way image based media is created,
disseminated, and shared has changed exponentially, as digital
imaging technology has replaced traditional film based media.
Digital images have become the pervasive photographic medium of
choice for the general public. Most libraries, archives, museums,
and galleries have undertaken some type of digitisation program:
converting their holdings into two dimensional digital images which
are available for the general user via the Internet. This raises
issues for those aiming to facilitate the creation and preservation
of digital images whilst supplying and improving user access to
image based material. Digital Images for the Information
Professional provides an overview of the place of images in the
changing information environment, and the use, function, and
appropriation of digital images in both institutional and personal
settings. Covering the history, technical underpinnings,
sustainability, application, and management of digital images, the
text is an accessible guide to both established and developing
imaging technologies, providing those within the information sector
with essential background knowledge of this increasingly ubiquitous
medium.
