Audit et conseil en stratĂ©gieArkhĂȘnum signs deal with German Museum of Books and Writing
The German National Library turns to ArkhĂȘnum once more
Following a first project that saw ArkhĂȘnumâs German team produce around 2.5 million digital images for the German National Library (DNB) between 2021 and 2023, the team will now begin work for the German Book and Writing Museum in Leipzig.
Founded in 1884, the Deutsches Buch- und Schriftmuseum is the oldest museum of its kind in the world. Housed in the DNB, the institution is devoted to collecting and conserving objects and documents relating to literature and books.
New digital service to be delivered on site
ArkhĂȘnum’s expertise at constructing independent digitisation workshops on client sites has earned it widespread praise once again.
Under this new project, the workshop will operate for two years to create another 2.5 million digital images, this time of old printed matter and incunabula from 1467 to 1830. A team of 10, including a project manager, will work closely on-site with museum staff.

Selecting the best of the latest technology: heritage scanners
Adapting to each client’s specific needs is a challenge for ArkhĂȘnum’s staff – which is why our technical experts stay abreast of the latest technological developments.
As part of the project, and due to the inability of certain manuscripts to open a full 180°,  our experts will use the latest generation of heritage scanners, capable of digitising at a 45° angle.
The project will require no fewer than six heritage scanners of four different types to meet the museumâs specific requirements.
Scanning is scheduled to start in the summer of 2023 and will last for two years, with the option to extend for a further two years.
