Lexington, KY from 8:30am - 5:00 pm. Optional Q&A session until 6:30 on

Libraries continue to be challenged by crumbling 19th century book and paper
collections.  Digital technology is the choice to enhance access, but the
Council on Library Information Resources considers preservation microfilming
"the gold standard" for preserving the intellectual content of brittle,
endangered materials.  The two-day session will cover planning projects,
selection and preparation for filming, microfilm technology and equipment,
standards and quality control including demonstration and hand-on
activities.

This workshop is designed for staff in all types of libraries and archives
who manage or work with microfilming projects, preservation administrators,
and collection managers.

Instructors are Bob Mottice, Director of Technology and Quality Control,
Bell & Howell and private consultant; and Becky Ryder, Preservation
Librarian, William P Young Library, University of Kentucky at Lexington.

Cost is $195 SOLINET members ($185 early bird, $220 late registration), $235
Non-SOLINET members ($225 early bird, $260 late registration. Price includes
lunch on both days.  Any institution within Kentucky qualifies for the
member rate.
