Dear Sri Vaithiyanathan,

In library vocabulary, it is Retro Conversion. The phrase is used generally to mean conversion of old catalogue to electronic format to develop a (presumably) searchable database (OPAC or Online public Access Catalogue)

Sincerely,

Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta

dear sir...

your explanation is simple and very easily understandable.

thankyou

lovingly yours...
