REGISTRATION TO OPEN MONDAY,
FEBRUARY 2nd FOR THE SUMMER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR VISUAL RESOURCES AND
IMAGE MANAGEMENT TO BE OFFERED IN JUNE 8-13, 2009.
The Art Libraries Society/North America (ARLIS/NA) and the Visual Resources
Association Foundation (VRAF) are pleased to announce that registration for the
sixth Summer Educational Institute (SEI) for Visual Resources and Image
Management will open Monday, February 2, 2009.
The Summer Educational Institute will be held at Simmons College in Boston,
Massachusetts, from June 8 through June 13, 2009. It is an intensive 5-day
workshop intended to provide instruction in visual resources and image
collection management. ARLIS/NA and the VRAF 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 is relevant for beginning visual resources professionals as well as
experienced professionals requiring new skills and knowledge. Instructors
are drawn from professionals in the field of visual
resources and library and information science.
Tuition is $675 for ARLIS/NA
and VRA members and $725 for non-members. Reasonably priced
accommodations in a Simmons College dormitory are available
for $360 (single occupancy with AC). A
cafeteria-style meal plan (breakfast, lunch & dinner) is offered at $27.50
per day.
While this year’s curriculum will continue to evolve over the next few
months, the basic course offerings will remain the same as they were in 2008.
Information on accommodations, meal plans and registration procedures are now
available on the SEI
2009 website.
