RDIC – Services

SERVICES

The RDIC accommodates a wide range of objects including framed artwork, transparent items and books. In addition to scanning, the RDIC performs many associated tasks including data entry, OCR, transcription, large format printing, website development, database design, and geo-referencing.
Examples of our online work:

New Jersey State Archives- Documentary Treasures
The RDIC scanned New Jersey’s 1789 copy of the Bill of Rights and Ratification. For more information about how the scanning took place see Digitizing the Charters.

Rosenbach Museum & Library- MO (Manuscripts Online)
RDIC staff developed this online database, and scanned the manuscripts presented on the site.

Free Library of Philadelphia Map Collection
The RDIC scanned over 4000 maps for the Free Library and created an access system for use within the library. The library has also made these maps available to the Philadelphia GeoHistory Network, an online project overseen by the Philadelphia Area Consortium of Special Collections Libraries. Some of the Athenaeum’s own maps are also on the site.
