We keep the images as digital in the format they are received in, and given
a number exacltly like any of the physical ones.  In the database, there is
a link to them for viewing.  I do not bother printing out any of these
photos because I never physically search the photo holdings for a
picture...always through the database.



Hope this helps!

How are Archives handling digital photographs which exist in that etheral
format only?  Are they given photo numbers and a print-out put in the
archives?



I would like to hear from professional and volunteer Archivists to find out
how these are being handled.
