School
for Scanning: Building Good Digital Collections
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:

Image Digitization

and Video Digitization

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.
