Unlocking Audio 2: Connecting with Listeners
16 & 17 March 2009
The British Library Conference Centre, London
Supported by JISC
Preliminary announcement
Unlocking Audio 2: Connecting with Listeners is an international conference
marking the end of the second phase of the British Libraryıs Archival Sound
Recordings project, funded by the Joint Information Systems Committee
(JISC).
The conference will focus on how audio resources need to be prepared for
access in ways that researchers expect to discover, browse, audition and
analyse them on-line.
Reviewing existing and emerging practices and technologies, the conference
will be of interest to:
-- content owners
-- service providers
-- user groups
-- resource managers
-- system integrators
-- designers and implementers of data mining, search and analysis tools
The programme will include a social dinner and behind-the-scenes tours of
the audio facilities of the British Library Conservation Centre. Space will
be available for displaying posters and small exhibits.
A detailed programme, call for papers and registration information will be
available soon at www.bl.uk/unlockingaudio <http://www.bl.uk/unlockingaudio>
