The Minnstf Document Digitization Project

This project has two major goals:

  1. Preserve MNstf documents via digitization.
  2. Make MNstf documents widely available on the web.

There are two major challenges:

  1. Actually doing all the scanning
  2. Securing permission from copyright holders who contributed to the documents

Scanning

Copyright

The Minnstf board in 2008 came up with clear guidelines on how to handle copyright for Mnstf (including Minicon) publications:

  • Images credited to an artist require us to ask the artist for permission to republish (including web posting)
  • Text credited to someone, ditto.
  • Anything not credited is assumed to be property of Minn-stf. We will, in general, put this up on the web with some sort of permissive license.
