CRKN’s digitization services are designed to provide clients with best-quality digital reproductions of their materials that adhere to metadata and technology standards. With a range of scanning, access and preservation service options, we are committed to working with you to ensure that your project is completed to your highest satisfaction.

As your not-for-profit digitization partner, CRKN is committed to:

Exceptional Service: Partner with CRKN on all aspects of your digitization project or leverage CRKN’s expertise on specific project elements.

Flexibility and Customization: We work with the broad spectrum of documentary heritage content types and will tailor our approach to your project by optimizing standard solutions or by providing custom solutions.  

Dedicated Experience: With over 40 years of expertise in preservation and a trusted digitization partner of over 20 years, CRKN also operates one of six Trustworthy Digital Repositories (TDRs) in the world.   

Partnership Approach: Canada's institutions and organizations possess rich holdings containing our nation's evolving documentary heritage. We aim to be a coordinator, facilitator, and service provider for digitization initiatives.  

What others say about our work:

"CRKN supported our digitization project in every aspect, including digitization, metadata creation, and hosting. We benefited from CRKN’s expertise and experience and also their ability to handle large-scale projects. CRKN is an essential not-for-profit partner for documentary heritage projects of national and historical significance." Joseph Hafner, McGill University Library

"We had the pleasure of working with CRKN to digitize a number of local newspapers from microfilm. In addition to exceptional quality in their digitization and preservation services, we also benefitted from CRKN’s access services, a cost-effective offering, which allowed us to make these local newspapers readily available to the public." Liz McQuaig, Central Library, Mississauga Library System
