Quick Summary

Come see Lizzy Baus of DIME present at the North Dakota Library Association Annual Conference in Grand Forks, ND!

Body

Lizzy Baus, a member of the Digital Inititatives & Metadata Education staff, will soon be traveling to Grand Forks, North Dakota to present at the North Dakota Library Association's Annual Conference in early October. She will be presenting not one but two sessions on Friday, October 6. 

First up is Preservation Day at the Library: A How-To Guide. This session will cover scanning 101, and offer tips on how to preserve your content after digitization. The second half of the session will describe one model for hosting family history preservation days at your library. You will learn about what hardware and software is needed for digitization/scanning, metadata, types of collaborations with other community groups, and educational topics you can offer to the public.

That afternoon will bring Transforming the Cataloging Landscape: A Minitex Update. This perennial favorite will discuss current and emerging initiatives that deal with new ways of interacting with the larger information universe as well as a summary of the DIME unit's activities.

We hope to see you in Grand Forks this October!
