There is still just time to book on the course "Rough guide to Image
Management: digital image handling for non-specialists", to be run in
London on Wednesday, 31st March 2010, 9.30 - 16.30.
This session aims to provide a road map for those new to the subject,
signposting the many issues to be considered, indicating short cuts for
effective service delivery and sources of help for more in-depth
solutions to complex enquiries.
Topics covered will range over:
* Locating sources: what to look for and where to look
* Digital libraries and repositories: cross searching effectively
* Embedded images: searching within documents
* Metadata content and ontologies: requirements for effective
retrieval
* Format and delivery issues
* Technology developments
* Rights issues and commercial factors
* Storage and preservation: short and long-term issues
* Using images in teaching and learning: the role of the information
specialist
* Collaborative development of educational resources
The workshop will comprise a mix of presentations and group work, and
participants are encouraged to bring examples of image-related queries
they have received to use as case studies in discussion.
