Digitize Historic Photos for Yosemite National Park Archives

The National Park Service intends to award a task agreement under a previously competed master cooperative agreement for the project "Digitize Historic Photos for Yosemite National Park Archives". The project involves digitizing 6,500 historic photographs and making them accessible to the public on the web. The recipient, Student Conservation Association, will engage in the recruitment, selection, and training of three archives interns who will conduct research, digitize images, and perform data entry. The project aims to increase opportunities for public learning and understanding of the natural and cultural history of Yosemite. Key aspects of the project include: • Digitization of 6,500 historic photographs • Research to verify images are in the public domain • Data entry into software to create necessary metadata • Upload of images and metadata to NPGallery • Production of at least one blog post or social media post during the internship
