After demonstrating PGDP to some people, I got in touch with an NGO who likes to scan their entire holdings, and make it available on the web. Has anybody on this list experience with outsourcing scanning jobs (on a larger scale)? I am looking at a project which includes about half a million pages that need to be digitized. Ofcourse I am not going to scan that much myself, and I heard prices at that scale can be as low as a few cents per page when done in the Philippines. Has anybody prepared documents describing quality control processes, etc., for such a bulk process. Hopefully, much of the material will be made available on-line, (although it will not copyright clear with PG, I don't expect issues with copyright). I may even set up a 'Distributed Proofreading' system for it. Jeroen.
