School for Scanning: The Hague



The Northeast Document Conservation Center (NEDCC) Announces:

School for Scanning: Creating, Managing, and Preserving Digital Assets

The Hague, The Netherlands

October 16-18, 2002
Koninklijke Bibliotheek - The National Library of the Netherlands

The Hague, The Netherlands



The conference, which will be presented entirely in English, is funded in
part by The Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) and the
Online Computer Library Center (OCLC).  It is co-sponsored by the European
Commission on Preservation and Access (ECPA) and the Koninklijke
Bibliotheek - The National Library of the Netherlands (KB).



What is the School for Scanning?  This conference provides current and
essential information for collections managers who are seeking to create,
manage, and preserve digital assets.  Participants will leave the
conference better equipped to make informed choices regarding management of
their digital projects.  Although significant technical content will be
presented, this is not a technician-training program.  Conference content
will include:



Envisioning Our Digital Future
Quality Control & Costs

Copyright & Other Legal Issues
Content Selection for Digitization

Metadata
Digital Asset Management

Standards
Digital Longevity & Preservation

Text & Image Digitization



Who Should Attend?  Administrators within cultural institutions, as well as
librarians, archivists, curators, and other cultural or natural resource
managers dealing with paper-based collections, including photographs, will
find the School for Scanning conference highly relevant and worthwhile.
The complexion of this conference evolves with the technology.  Although an
audience of 150+ attendees is expected, the number of North American
participants will be limited to 20.
