Abstract

The Bibliotheca Alexandrina Antiquities Museum (BAAM) has been involved in many digitization-related projects.Part of them were external projects where the museum played a secondary part, while in others the BAAM team was a main player.This paper analyses some of these projects and discusses the lessons learnt from each of them.It also highlights the role of museum professionals in formulating clear objectives for digitization, and the subsequent strategies formulated to achieve them.Finally, it presents some of the digitization advantages, opportunities, difficulties, and challenges based on the BAAM experiences.
