Please excuse cross-posting. ********** Want to learn more about digitizing, scanning, and imaging? Join us on November 6-7 for a day and half conference with colleagues and vendors doing just that, all in beautiful Charlottesville, Virginia. The Scanning Forum 2006 conference web site and registration available: http://www.lib.virginia.edu/scanningforum/index.html This year's theme: Balancing Quality, Automation, and Service? Come listen to a keynote breakfast talk on "Moving Libraries from Books to Bytes," by Dr. Lotfi Belkhir, CEO of Kirtas Technologies, Inc. Listen and discuss with colleagues the current and emerging technology and workflow for scanning and imaging at a range of services: Interlibrary Loan and Document Delivery, Rare materials and Special Collection scanning, Alternate Text Production, Digital Library production, and Electronic Reserves. We encourage attendees to be active participants; from registration (we ask you a few questions about what you are current challenges and plans for the next year), to sessions that encourage questions and answers, and to lunch and other sessions with interest groups. The conference will be held in the Doubletree Hotel Charlottesville, very near the Charlottesville airport (CHO), and you can easily visit nearby sites: University of Virginia, Monticello, etc. We hope to see you November 6-7, 2006. ------------ Leslie Johnston Head, Digital Access Services University of Virginia Library http://lib.virginia.edu/digital/ http://lib.virginia.edu/digital/das/ [log in to unmask]
