essential information for collections managers who are seeking to create,

digital projects. Although significant technical content will be presented,
this is not a technician-training program. Conference content will include:
Project Management Collaborative Project Models
Copyright and Other Legal Issues Text and Image Digitization
Content Selection for Digitization Descriptive, Structural, and
Administrative
Standards Metadata
Quality Control and Costs Digital Longevity and 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 collections, including photographs, will
find the School for Scanning conference highly relevant and worthwhile.
Since the complexion of this conference evolves with the technology, it
would be beneficial to attend even if you have participated in a previous
School for Scanning. An audience of 200 or more attendees is expected.

bird registration postmarked on or before October 19, 2001, and $400 for
late registration, deadline November 9, 2001. Participants will be
responsible for all of their travel, meals, and lodging costs. A
