- Digital Imaging Guidelines for Nevada Libraries and Archives (2003)
By: R. Jackson Armstrong-Ingram, C.A., former NSLA Digital Archivist
This is a basic introduction to digitization projects with links to other projects, guidelines and standards. It was intended to be a document circulated to applicants for Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) funds for digitization projects. The links probably should be updated and new links added to reflect the standards already approved by the project members. -- Jeff Kintop, NSLA
- Mapping Dublin Core to PastPerfect for Photographic Metadata Harvesting (2003)
By: Christine Farlow, former volunteer to Nevada Historical Society and Nevada State Museum for PastPerfect cataloging
Early on a need was recognized to create a guide for PastPerfect users so that the data they added to their PastPerfect fields could be mapped to Dublin Core. Both PastPerfect and Dublin Core have changed and been updated since this was written. The document should be updated. -- Jeff Kintop, NSLA
- Selected Library of Congress Subject Headings for the Nevada State Archives (Revised, 2000)
Compiled by: UNLV Library's Technical Services Librarian
This was written when NSLA and the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV) began cataloging photographs for library catalogs in 1991. NSLA cataloged 6,000 photographs and photograph collections in anticipation of future imaging projects. Since it is a MS Word document, new subject headings can be added as needed because it shows how to construct them. -- Jeff Kintop, NLSA
- Taking a Quantum Leap: A Prototype for Building a Statewide Digital Cultural Heritage Clearinghouse Using Metada Harvesters (4th Quarter Update, 2003)
By: Glee Willis, Digital Projects Librarian, University of Nevada Reno (UNR) Library
This paper was written when the possibility of one-stop shopping for historical materials was considered and projects envisioned that would harvest from NSLA collections and those of the two university libraries. It contains the crosswalk between the PastPerfect, Dublin Core and MARC cataloging fields. -- Jeff Kintop, NSLA

There is a local Nevada/California place names and subject headings list that UNLV uses for its LSTA funded Boomtown grant that Glee Willis (UNR) and Kathy Rankin (UNLV) developed. -- Cory Lampert, UNLV Digitization Projects Librarian
