Abstract: The aim of this research was to investigate the digitisation process of text-based materials by conducting a comparative analysis of the National Library of Wales, United Kingdom and the Nigeria Governors’ Forum Special Library, with a keen examination of their respective best practices. The study focused on the National Library of Wales, United Kingdom, and the Nigeria Governors’ Forum Special Library. There were five objectives in this research which were to identify the similarities and differences in the digitisation processes of text-based materials of the NLW and the NGF special library; to identify best practices and potential areas for improvement in the digitisation policies and strategies of both libraries; examine the strengths and weaknesses of digitisation processes at the NLW and the NGF special library; evaluate critically the impact of digitisation in the NLW and the NGF special library; and to inform future decision making by developing recommendations for digitisation processes of text-based materials in libraries. Data was collected and analysed by using observation, questionnaires, and document analysis. The findings of the research showed that both libraries have established processes for digitising text-based materials, and there are similarities and differences in the digitisation processes used in both libraries. Recommendations were outlined.
