Why is MSL digitizing its state publications?
The majority of state employees and Montana citizens live and work outside of Helena. Digitization makes state publications accessible to everyone with Internet service, anywhere, anytime from any place. Digitization increases awareness of the rich information contained in state publications and opens up new research possibilities. Also, digital access reduces wear and tear on print versions of state publications. Digitization also protects the information in state publications from loss should an earthquake, fire, or water damage the print collection housed at the library.
