Sažetak
bjective. The aim of this paper is to preserve the original sheet music of the Croatian Singing Society „Lipa“ through the process of digitization, protect the originals and facilitate easier access to the sheet music for a wider range of users.
Approach/Methodology. The methodology of the paper will focus on analyzing previous projects and utilizing the process of digitization and digital replicas as the central approach in processing, ensuring accessibility and presenting the sheet music, with an emphasis on new ways of its utilization.
Results. The paper provides a detailed overview of the importance of the digitization process and the creation of digital replicas with the possibility of establishing new services and communication with users in a virtual environment.
Limitations. The material should be scanned according to the recommendations of the Office for Digitization of National Heritage (400 dpi, 24-bit color) and archival matrices should be created in uncompressed TIFF format, which are preserved without additional interventions or image processing. User copies are made from archival matrices in JPEG format and other formats as needed, and then further processed for online display. Due to lack of funding, the entire digitization process was carried out voluntarily and with resources that were already available within the Jesuit Classical Highschool in Osijek.
Originality/Value. The experiences gained from these projects can serve other cultural and artistic societies with a long tradition in the practical application of one of the models of digitization in overcoming numerous challenges they face. Cultural and artistic societies do not have their own permanent addresses or archivists, which prevents them from systematic and quality protection of their materials. This is already a significant issue regarding the preservation of cultural heritage, with which cultural and artistic institutions are facing today, and it reflects the originality of this work.
