2.1 Digitize - RIM Manual

Last updated on August 21, 2024

Authority

Digitization practices are governed by several authorities. 

Digitization

Digitization is the process of copying physical records (usually paper) into digital form. The process of digitization includes planning, assessing, preparing, digitizing, compiling metadata, running quality assurance checks, and securely storing and managing the digitized records.

A well-planned, properly resourced, defensible digitization process will help ensure that your digitized records are trustworthy and that you will meet the requirements for disposing of the original (redundant source) records as specified in the RSIS.

Requirements

The requirements for BC Government digitization processes are established in the DGI Standard, which has been approved by the CRO.
