SOLINET, Inc, The Southeastern Library Network, is pleased to
present the following training opportunity.
***********************
INTRODUCTION TO DIGITAL IMAGING FOR LIBRARIES AND ARCHIVES
The increase in digital imaging projects for library and archival
collections raises many issues related to selection, resource
allocation and long-term access (preservation). These issues must
be thoroughly examined before an institution undertakes a digital
imaging project.
Issues addressed in this one-day workshop include the following:
What collections or resources are appropriate for digital
conversion? How will the digital files be maintained? Who is
responsible for ensuring future access to this digital information?
Is future access necessary? Institutions considering imaging
project must consider these questions. This workshop is designed
to provide participants with the tools needed to make informed
decision about undertaking scanning projects.
This workshop will be held on Friday, June 2nd, 2000 at Louisiana
State University, Baton Rouge, LA from 9am-4pm.
Instructor is Faye Phillips, Assistant Dean of Libraries for
Special Collections, Louisiana State University
Cost is $95 SOLINET Members ($85 early bird, $120 late
registration) $135 Non-SOLINET & FEDLINK ($125 early, $160 late

member rate.
Partial funding for this workshop has been provided by a grant from
the National Endowment for the Humanities, Division of Preservation
and Access.
