The Digital Photo Library Project At The National Library Of Tunisia: Failure Reasons And The Path Success

Authors : Emna Madani .

Abstract

The photographic library of the National Library of Tunisia is a unique fund with varying size. It is considered as a “treasure” of the country’s history and living memory. However, this fund remains particularly fragile and is likely to disappear and its preservation is a big challenge. In this study, we expose the experiment of digitalization of the photographic heritage of the National library of Tunisia and highlight the different problems which prevented the launching of the digital photographic library. Then, we make some suggestions in order to reconsider the photographic digitalization of the fund at the National Library of Tunisia
