Dear list,

announce the following workshops which will take place in March and April
2004. Our workshops cover all aspects of digital imaging; providing
practical hands-on skills to those exploring digital media.

March 25th - Image Capture for Beginners
Provides an introduction and overview of digital imaging and includes
practical exercises using a scanner and digital camera. Just the thing to
get you past all the digital jargon and using the equipment effectively in
your day to day work. This is the first in a series of three TASI image
capture workshops. Will be run at TASI training suite at the University of
Bristol.
March 30th - Creating Quality Metadata for Digital Images
To the uninitiated, metadata can seem a dry and complicated issue. This
workshop takes a lively and practical approach. It considers metadata
schemas and controlled vocabularies and looks at how these can be used,
pragmatically, within a comprehensive metadata framework for an imaging
project. Please Note: This workshop is complemented by TASI's Image
Management course (April 23).
Note: This workshop will be held at The Robinson Library, Newcastle
University, Newcastle upon Tyne, England, NE2 4HQ
March 31st - Digital Rights Management - Practical Approaches to Securing
and Protecting Copyright
Starting with copyright law, we highlight the copyright clearance
obligations within different types of digital images, and offer practical
approaches to the task of obtaining copyright permissions. We also show
attendees several practical methods protecting copyright within a digital
environment. Throughout the day we examine various contracts and end user
licenses.
Note: This workshop will be held at The Robinson Library, Newcastle
University, Newcastle upon Tyne, England, NE2 4HQ
