SCHOOL FOR SCANNING: BUILDING GOOD DIGITAL COLLECTIONS

 

June 1 - 3, 2005
The Boston Park Plaza Hotel & Towers 
Boston, Massachusetts
 

What is the School for Scanning?  This conference, taught by some of our nation's leading experts in digital library development, provides current, essential information for managers of paper-based, photographic, audio, and video collections who are seeking to create, manage, and preserve digital assets.  Although significant technical content will be presented, this is not a technician-training program.  Conference content will include:

 

Content Selection for Digitization                  

Copyright and Other Legal Issues             

Text and Image Digitization                              

Audio and Video Digitization                              

Metadata                                                         

The IT Perspective

Essentials of Delivery Systems

Business Models for Digital Projects/Programs

Outsourcing and Vendor Relations

Digital Preservation

 

Who should attend?  Administrators within cultural institutions, as well as librarians, archivists, curators, and other cultural or natural resource managers dealing with paper-based, photographic, audio, and video collections should find the School for Scanning conference highly relevant and worthwhile.  Since the content and complexion of this conference evolves with the technology, it may prove beneficial to attend even if you have participated in a previous School for Scanning. An audience of 200 or more attendees is expected.

 

What does the conference cost?  The cost of the conference is $410 and the registration deadline is May 3, 2005.  Registration applications will be accepted on a first-come-first-served basis.
