(With apologies for cross-posting)
I’m getting in touch with an opportunity for the developers and software engineers among you: a chance to attend the annual conference of The Association of Moving Image Archivists (AMIA)<http://www.amiaconference.net/> with support from the Digital Library Federation.
The award, which includes up to $1,250 in travel funding as well as registration, will go to one software development professional from the DLF community. The ideal applicant:
* Seeks more exposure to trends in stewarding digital audiovisual collections.
* Would not typically attend the conference, but can envision and articulate a connection with their work.
* Sees great value in building a dynamic and diverse peer network.
* Is interested in participating in the AMIA+DLF Hack Day on November 28, 2018.
* Is enthusiastic about collaborating with preservation professionals who have varying levels of technical expertise.
* Is affiliated with a DLF member institution<https://www.diglib.org/about/members/>.
The Association of Moving Image Archivists Conference will take place in Portland, Oregon, November 28-December 1, 2018, and we are pleased to partner with them once again in sponsoring the fifth annual DLF/AMIA Hack Day<http://www.amiaconference.net/amia-dlf-hack-day/>, bringing together collections practitioners and managers with developers and engineers for a day of collaboration.
Please share the link to more information<https://www.diglib.org/amia-dlf-cross-pollinator-travel-awards-3/> with anyone who may be interested in this award! The deadline to apply is September 14th.
With thanks,
Becca
