ITU digitizes historical archives
11.02.10
ITU’s Historical Documents Digitization Programme is an ongoing project to catalogue and scan key ITU documents and outcomes of major conferences and make them available on the web. Optical character recognition (OCR) allows the documents to be fully searchable.
Documents generated from ITU Plenipotentiary Conferences as well as from
early radio, telegraph and telephone conferences are now available on the
portal. For each conference, the portal provides background information, key
data, and links to the documents and other materials catalogued by the
Library.
The digitization programme will continue to make available documents of
historic significance, including those related to Radiocommunication Conferences
since 1903.
