The Visual Resources Committee and Cataloguing and Classification Committee
jointly present a study day aimed at both library cataloguers of print and
electronic publications, who need or wish to find out about how to adapt their
skills to visual resources, and at ‘ACADIans’, visual resources curators and
anyone responsible for the management and discovery of digital images,
whether in HE, Art Colleges, Museums, Galleries or Art Collections.
It will explore approaches to the business of cataloguing images, looking at
different metadata schemas, data standards & controlled vocabularies & how
these have been applied to real life resources including digital image
collections, the moving image, art websites, material in digital repositories, and
even primary art objects. Speakers include representatives from the museums
world, Higher Education & the JISC.
Further information about the event will be made available on the ARLIS
