LRC’s digitization services are separated into two categories: digital preservation of physical items, such as letters and photos, and digital history projects and media.

Digital History is the utilization of technology and digital tools to share and showcase research innovatively and engagingly through combinations of visual, auditory, interactive, or physical ways. Digital History is also a way to connect with history in a modern medium. It can be an intimidating and slow process to revamp projects and research into a digital format, but LRC is committed to making history exciting and accessible to all.
