Abstract
Purpose This paper seeks to discuss a grantfunded digitization project for unique Afghanistan gray literature. It aims to address the digitization tasks, workflow, challenges, and solutions. Persistent identifiers, filenaming conventions, pagenaming rules, and a digitization management system are discussed in detail since they were critical to the success of the project. Designmethodologyapproach The paper describes the unique requirements of the project, and analyzes difficult issues related to the separation of predigitization and postdigitization in two remote locations. The approach includes persistent identifiers, filenaming rules, pagenaming conventions and a digitization management system. After one and a half years of operation, the approach has been effective and efficient. Findings The paper analyzes the unique challenges for a longdistance collaboration on digitization. Predigitization and digital imaging were carried out in Kabul, Afghanistan, with all the physical materials located there, while postdigitization and quality control were performed in Tucson, Arizona. The paper found that several components such as persistent identifiers, filenaming conventions, pagenaming rules, and digitization management system were critical to the success of the project. Practical implications The project demonstrates an approach to address a unique digitization project due to the separation of predigitization and postdigitization. In addition, the approach has served other digitization projects well. Originalityvalue The paper was written for both project managers and technical staff. Project managers can find out the usefulness of a digitization management system and understand digitization issues while technical staff can find interests in a persistent identifier scheme, filenaming conventions and pagenaming rules.
