Abstract

e-books digitalization project at Haramaya University Library and Information Services has created 17,456 E- books and 300 local contents in which manually derived descriptors for the scanned books are used for indexing and segmenting the library contents using Greenstone Digital Library Software. During implementation, many lessons were learned on both technical and administration aspects of the project. This paper highlights some of the author's pertinent experiences during the implementation of the project.
