REGISTRATION TO OPEN MONDAY, FEBRUARY 4, FOR THE SUMMER EDUCATIONAL
INSTITUTE FOR VISUAL RESOURCES AND IMAGE MANAGEMENT TO BE OFFERED IN
JULY 2008.
The Art Libraries Society/North America (ARLIS/NA) and the Visual
Resources Association (VRA) are pleased to announce that registration
for the fifth Summer Educational Institute (SEI) for Visual Resources
and Image Management will open Monday, February 4, 2008.
The Summer Educational Institute will be held at James Madison
University in Harrisonburg, VA, from July 7 through July 13, 2008. It is
an intensive 5-day workshop intended to provide instruction in visual
resources and image collection management. ARLIS/NA and VRA have
developed a special curriculum to provide intensive training in these
areas--training that is often not found in library and information
science degree programs. The Summer Educational Institute will be
relevant for beginning visual resources professionals as well as
experienced professionals requiring new skills and knowledge.
Instructors will be drawn from professionals in the field of visual
resources and library and information science. Tuition will be $675 for
ARLIS/NA and VRA members and $725 for non-members. Reasonably priced
accommodations in a James Madison University dorm will be available for
approximately $31 a night with A/C. A cafeteria-style meal plan will
also be offered at approximately $22 per day.
While the curriculum will continue to evolve, the basic course offerings
will remain the same as they were in 2007. Information on instructors,
syllabus, accommodations, and registration procedures will be
available on our website soon. Until the SEI 2008 website is available
you can still reference the SEI 2007 site at
