Registration ends very soon for the Minitex/Minnesota Digital Library-sponsored virtual class Basics of AV Preservation. The class will be presented by Alyssa Magnone from the Northeast Document Conservation Center (NEDCC) on March 5th, 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. If you have audiovisual materials in your collection such as cassettes, VHS, or reel-to-reel film this is for you!

What do you struggle with the most as a project manager? Come ready to share your experiences and lessons learned.

In this special edition of the Minitex Conversation Collection Development series, we are collaborating with folks from the Technical Services Section (TSS) of the Minnesota Library Association. We will talk about diversity audits with two teams of librarians: ​​​​​​​Naomi Skulan and Peter Bremer from University of Minnesota Morris, and Christie Kess and Christian Koegel from Dakota County Library.

Minitex’s Professional Development Alliance Partner NCLIVE is offering a Marketing Learning Series featuring librarians who excel in marketing, social media management, and creative programming.

Do you work with born-digital materials or are you curious to learn more about how others work with them? Register and join us for an in-person Bit Curator Forum satellite event at the University of Minnesota to meet with like-minded folks. Our FREE local programming will occur on day 2 of the Forum, March 20, at Andersen Library on the west bank of the University of Minnesota Twin Cities campus.
