School for Scanning: Delray Beach Creating, Managing, and Preserving Digital Assets Presented by the Northeast Document Conservation Center December 3-5,2001 Delray Beach, Florida The conference is funded in part by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and the National Endowment for the Humanities. It is cosponsored by the Southeast Florida Library Information Network, (SEFLIN), and SOLINET (Southeastern Library Network). * What is the School for Scanning? This conference provides current, essential information for collections managers who are seeking to create, manage, and preserve digital assets. Participants will leave the conference better equipped to make informed choices regarding management of their digital projects. Although significant technical content will be presented, this is not a technician-training program. Conference content will include: - Project Management - Content Selection for Digitization - Copyright and Other Legal Issues - Text and Image Digitization - Collaborative Project Models - Descriptive, Structural, and Administrative Metadata - Standards - 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. * What does the Conference Cost? The cost of the conference is $325 for early 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 complimentary continental breakfast will be provided each morning at the conference site.
