School for Scanning: Los Angeles

Creating, Managing, and Preserving Digital Assets

Presented by the Northeast Document Conservation Center

April 23-25, 2003

Los Angeles, California

The conference is funded in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities.  It is cosponsored by The Getty Center, Amigos Library Services, Imaging and Preservation Services, and

The Balboa Art Conservation Center.

 

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                                         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 300 or more attendees is expected.

What does the Conference Cost?  The cost of the conference is $365 for registrations postmarked on or before April 4, 2003. Participants will be responsible for all of their travel, meals, and lodging costs.  For information about special hotel and airline fares, see the Registration Information at www.nedcc.org.  Registration applications will be accepted on a first-come-first-served basis.
