The project objectives are the development of infrastructure for digitization, improving the methodology of processing, digitizing over 50,000 negatives, development of a database and web portal for presentation of photo material from museum collections in cooperation with Mathematical Institute SANU, organizing student practice at the museum in a collaboration with the Center for museology and heritology at Faculty of Philosophy and Faculty of Media and Communicationsat University of Belgrade, organization of workshops and exhibitions in a cooperation with a partner on the project, data exchange with the portal Visual Archive Southeastern Europe (VASE) and publication of the manual based on the best practices of digitization process.
