On behalf of the UMDCC conference planning committee, please share the following announcement: ********************************************************************************** The *Upper Midwest Digital Collections Conference* and the *Minnesota Digital Library Annual Meeting* will be held jointly *November 5-6, 2020*. Our two conferences share the same goals of providing an opportunity to connect with colleagues, share projects, and learn from each other, with the added benefit of additional cross-pollination between two different groups with many affinities. Programming provided will appeal to digital practitioners of many stripes, and allow us to showcase the best of what is happening with digital collections right now. *This year it will be an all-virtual event!* Stay tuned for more information, as the Call for Proposals will open soon! Conference hashtags are *#UMDCC20* and *#mndiglib2020*. - Sara Ring, on behalf of the Upper Midwest Digital Collections Conference planning committee ***** *More About the Upper Midwest Digital Collections Conference* The UMDCC provides opportunities for digital collections creators and curators in the region and beyond to network, share best practices, participate in hands-on workshops, and learn from leaders in digital cultural heritage. Minitex staff, along with a regional planning committee, are the primary organizers of the Upper Midwest Digital Collections Conference. *More About the Minnesota Digital Library* The Minnesota Digital Library <https://www.mndigital.org/about> (MDL) supports discovery and education through access to unique digital collections shared by cultural heritage organizations from across the state of Minnesota. Our contributors include over 195+ libraries, historical societies, museums, and archives. Each year, MDL offers a conference at which MDL participants, partners, and interested professionals gather to learn about the MDL, what the collaborative is currently doing, and to attend sessions on a variety of topics such as best practices (scanning, preservation, metadata), teaching approaches, sharing MDL projects, technical skills, and more. ****************************************************************************************************** *Beth Goodrich* Librarian [log in to unmask] Direct: 612-206-3118 1224 Marshall Street NE, Suite 200 Minneapolis, MN 55413 craftcouncil.org Please consider a donation to the American Craft Council. <https://craftcouncil.org/giving> We champion craft, and we'll continue to do so with your partnership! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mail submissions to [log in to unmask] For information about joining ARLIS/NA see: http://www.arlisna.org/membership/join-arlisna Send administrative matters (file requests, subscription requests, etc) to [log in to unmask] ARLIS-L Archives and subscription maintenance: http://lsv.arlisna.org Questions may be addressed to list owner (Judy Dyki) at: [log in to unmask] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
