Early-bird deadline is approaching: April 14 ************************************************************ DIGITAL DIRECTIONS: Fundamentals of Creating and Managing Digital Collections Presented by NEDCC August 3-5 - Raleigh Convention Center, Raleigh, NC JOIN US in Raleigh for 2 ½ days of instruction on best practices and practical strategies for the creation, curation, and use of digital collections. PAST PARTICIPANTS comment on the benefits of attending Digital Directions: - "This was truly a 'Digitization 101' for me. I am so glad I attended! I can use the information to be more confident when making a presentation to the library directors and colleagues. Thank you!" - "Very useful that the presentations work for participants in the "real world" where resources and time are limiting. I work within a limited horizon - you hit the sweet spot of needs / practical options." - "Most valuable for me: Making connections with colleagues doing similar work; learning about recently developed standards, best practices, and recommendations; learning about digital project tools (especially application-agnostic general purpose tools), and hearing about case studies, especially lessons learned." - "This conference will affect my preservation priorities as a project manager. I will be more cognizant of choosing to digitize on the basis of available resources. Outcome: shift in decision making framework." SIGN UP for the optional Lunchtime Discussion Groups with faculty. Ask your questions in a small group setting. Register early, lunch seats are limited! COMPLETE information and registration: bit.ly/DigDir15<http://bit.ly/DigDir15> QUESTIONS?
