Digital Directions: Fundamentals of Creating and Managing Digital Collections
This introductory three-day conference is an updated version of NEDCC’s popular School for Scanning, which was first presented in 1995. The conference has kept up with evolving standards and practices over the years, and the name change reflects its expanded content, which now encompasses the full life-cycle of digital objects, from planning to creation to sustainability.


Stewardship of Digital Assets
A two-day workshop focusing on sustaining digital collections. Through a combination of lecture and interactive sessions you will learn from a faculty of four digital experts about the long-term needs of the digital assets that exist in your institution, and how to plan for their preservation. The workshop provides examples from model digital preservation plans and includes case studies from established digital preservation programs. Faculty members work directly with attendees to assist in developing their plans.
