Hello and please excuse cross-posting! I am writing to let you know about two upcoming ACRL Image Resources Interest Group-related events. *Image Resources Interest Group Discussion Forum at ALA Midwinter* *Sunday, January 24, 2021 | 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM CT* If you are registered for ALA Midwinter, please consider joining us for this open discussion forum on the increased role of digital image resources during the COVID-19 pandemic, when access to print materials has been limited. Potential topics for discussion include techniques for discovering and organizing recommendations for open-access image collections, expanding the visibility of existing institutional visual resources, and handling copyright/fair use questions for both digitized and born-digital visual media. This forum will be moderated by IRIG incoming convener Jackie Fleming. *IRIG Winter Business Meeting* *Wednesday, February 10, 2021 | 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm CT* Following the format of our recent IRIG meetings, this will be a brief business meeting followed by lightning talks. *To submit a proposal for a ten-minute lightning talk, please send a title and brief description (2-3 sentences is fine!) for your proposed talk to [log in to unmask] <[log in to unmask]> by January 29.* Any topics related to image resources in higher education information settings (such as academic or branch libraries, special collections, art and design school libraries, departmental libraries, visual resource centers, and so on) are welcome!
