Did you know that the majority of registrants in the upcoming Summer Educational Institute for Visual Resources and Image Management  heard about SEI through a colleague?  Help shape the next generation of image collection managers:  recommend this valuable training opportunity to someone you know. Registration spots are filling up quickly!

Currently in its tenth year as a joint program between The Art Libraries Society/North America (ARLIS/NA) and the Visual Resources Association Foundation (VRAF), SEI 2013 will be held for a second year at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor from June 18-21, 2013.  This intensive workshop specifically addresses the requirements of today’s professional. Expert instructors will cover intellectual property rights, digital imaging, metadata and cataloging, the essential tools of image management, and how to expand your professional role. Attendees will also have an opportunity to discuss and brainstorm on a range of issues, from new media and marketing visual resources to professional development and future career roles.

The SEI curriculum is suited to information professionals new to the field, as well as more experienced professionals eager to respond to fast-changing technological advancements and job requirements. Individuals serving in a range of professional roles have benefitted from past SEIs, including visual resources professionals, university and public librarians, archivists, and museum professionals responsible for image rights and reproductions. Reduced tuition is offered to VRA and ARLIS/NA members. Applications are also accepted through March 8 for five scholarships from the Samuel H. Kress Foundation.
