If the slides are not archival candidates, i.e. unique material or material associated with your institution and its history, faculty or activities, capture all the available info on them and give the away or toss them once they are scanned.  It’s surprisingly liberating once you’ve accepted the idea.  At the very least, just use tape to secure the old label. Don’t waste time and labor on more than that.

Please excuse cross-postings.

 

For those that have digitized 35mm slide collections, are you keeping the original slides or discarding them after they’ve been digitized?

 

During the process of scanning, some of the old labels on the slide mounts fall off due to old/dry adhesive, and we’ve been spending the time relabeling them, but I’m wondering if we’re wasting our time doing so, especially if we end up deciding to toss them.

 

Thanks in advance for your replies,
