This has been an interesting thread (esp. the most recent posts...) To expand the discussion: most of the responses seem to indicate that digital photography and scanning are the primary responsibilities.
I'm curious about where digital video and audio recording fall in other museums. Here it's more of a stepchild than anything -- if a department needs these media (usually Design or for the Web), they either contract out or borrow a video cam or digital audio recorder from IS for less formal projects. Digital Lab sometimes fields questions about formats and long term storage, but we're not responsible for creating AV materials. Others?
