Quote:
"'Nowadays, the easiest part is scanning the material,' [James] Roth[,
library’s deputy director] said. 'The issue is, what do you do with all
those images? That’s the cutting-edge part of what we’re doing now.'
"Every document and image has been scanned by hand, to protect the originals
, at high resolution (600 dots per inch) to ensure that even pencil notes
would be legible.
My comment:
(a) Following quotation 1, answers appear: cataloging and "appending
relevant data to each document."
(b)
(i) Camelot

the early Arthurian material, Camelot first appeared in 12th-century French
romances./ The name's derivation is also unknown)
(ii) "Camelot, a fond nickname for the relatively good times during the
early part of John F. Kennedy's presidency of the United States."
