The Art Libraries Society /North America (ARLIS/NA) and the Visual Resources
Association (VRA) are pleased to announce the 2006 Summer Educational
Institute for Visual Resources and Image Management, to be held at Reed
College, in Portland, Oregon from June 11th - 16th, 2006.

 

This year, topics will be clustered into a series of  "Days":

                Data Structure Day: Intro to Metadata; Core 4.0; Database
Design; Work/Image; XML

                Content Metadata Day:Authorities; CCO; OAI,FRBR,CDWA,EAD,

                Imaging Day

                DAMS Day

                Intellectual Property Rights, Strategy, and Implementation
Day

 

Instructors, covering a wide range of expertise, are being drawn from
recognized professionals in the field, this year showcasing our West Coast
Colleagues.   Attendees, ranging from Visual Recourses specialists to
Academics to Digital Librarians and Archivists to Library School students,
will receive certification of attendance and completion from our parent
organizations. As most library and information science programs do not
address the needs of image collection professionals, the ARLIS/NA -VRA
Summer Educational Institute is intended to provide a standardized and
sustainable program for visual resources training, with a focus on issues
related to digital collection management and item-level image metadata.  As
was true for the first two SEIs, the 2006 class is fully enrolled at 45
participants, with a waitlist.  The 2007 SEI will be at Indiana University,
Bloomington, and proposals are being considered for the 2008 institute.

 

SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

 

We are actively seeking donors and sponsors for the 2006 Summer Educational
Institute, and for future institutes. Many opportunities for named
sponsorships at various levels are available, including: 

Reception ($750-$1000)

Breaks ($125-250)

 

This year we are particularly in need of help in providing three
introductory texts for each of our      participants, as we will be
depending on these to cover much basic material which no longer fits into
the very full SEI schedule.  Even though we can get them at cost, we still
need over $60.00 per participant to provide them with the VRA Introduction
to the Digital Transition,  and the Getty Introduction to Art Image Access
and the Introduction to Imaging.  

 

We need ten special sponsors to contribute $250.00 or more toward this
special goal.   

We invite all interested vendors, corporate colleagues, and contributors to
visit the Summer Institute website http://www.vraweb.org/seiweb/index.html
for a fuller description of all aspects of our program and our roster of
instructors.

          Please feel free to contact the 2006 SEI Co-Chairs for further
information.
