Subject: Digital Readiness Toolkit now available!

Recollection Wisconsin's new Digital Readiness Toolkit
<https://recollectionwisconsin.org/digital-readiness-toolkit> is now available! This revised and expanded set of tools, guidelines, examples, templates, and other resources is a complete guide to creating and tending a digital collection. The Toolkit was developed specifically to meet the needs of small cultural heritage organizations and is freely available for anyone to use. Every stage of the Toolkit's development, from planning to design to review to testing, was driven by community input. Many thanks to everyone who contributed to this process, including beta testers at Carthage College, the Judge Eghart House (Port Washington), The Highground Veterans Memorial Park (Neillsville), and the Sister Bay Liberty Grove Fire Department Oral History Project. This work was supported in part by grants to WiLS, in partnership with Recollection Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Historical Society, from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC).

The entire toolkit in PDF format is attached to this message, or visit the web version at the link above. We'd love to hear from the local history community about how this Toolkit works for you, and what else you'd like to see in future editions!
