The Art Libraries Society /North America (ARLIS/NA) and the Visual Resources Association (VRA) are pleased to announce the 2007 Summer Educational Institute for Visual Resources and Image Management, to be held at Indiana University, in Bloomington, Indiana from June 24th – 29th, 2007. This year topics will be clustered into a series of “Days” with exercises included: * Data Structure Day: Introduction of Metadata, Core 4, Database Design, Work/Image, XML * Content Metadata Day: Authorities, CCO, OAI, CDWA, EAD * Imaging Day: Digital Copystand, Digital Project Management, Photoshop, Color Management * Digital Asset Management (DAMS) Day: What are they and how we use them * Strategy Day: Intellectual Property Rights, Archiving, Storage, Funding, Assessment,Planning Instructors, covering a wide range of expertise, are being drawn from recognized professionals in the field, this year showcasing our colleagues. Attendees, ranging from visual resources 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 Education Institute (SEI) 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 three SEIs, the 2007 class is fast filling up. Future Summer Education Institutes in 2008 and 2009 will be held at James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia and Simmons College in Boston, Massachusetts respectively. SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES We are actively seeking donors and sponsors for the 2007 Summer Education Institute and for future institutes. Many opportunities for named sponsorship at various levels are available, including: Reception ($750-$1000) Breaks ($125-$250) We invite all interested vendors, corporate colleagues, and contributors to visit the Summer Education Institute website http://www.vraweb.org/seiweb/index.html for a complete description of all aspects of our program and our roster of instructors, and to visit our Sponsors Page http://www.vraweb.org/seiweb/sponsors.html.
