Digitization of Legacy Records

Planning for digitization :-

Before going for digitization task in a Judiciary, ground work is required for

selection of documents which needs digitization considering importance and

future requirements of the documents, type of documents (files, rare books,

historical documents, loose sheets, maps etc.) and various sizes of the

documents (A0 - A10). An approximate number of total pages being digitized

have to be worked out for the estimation of total efforts, work involved and

duration of the project.

Selection of Records for Digitization as per Record Retention Policy-

Supreme Court and High Courts have already defined their own record

retention policies, which are helpful in differentiating the records, which

require preservation. The records retention policies of the High Courts are

slightly different from each other.
