About the Archiving Conference
Since 2004, Archiving has been bringing together an international community of technical experts, managers, practitioners, and academics from cultural heritage institutions, universities, and commercial enterprises, to explore and discuss state-of-the-art imaging, digitization, preservation, and access for 2D, 3D, and AV materials, including documents, manuscripts, photographs, bound volumes, paintings, videos, and born-digital works.
The interdisciplinary focus of the conference creates a rich environment for information exchange. In addition to presenting the latest research results on digitization and curation, Archiving investigates new technologies, strategies, and policies, as well as reports on successful projects that can serve as benchmarks in the field and explores different platforms and ways of visualizing data, allowing for deeper connections with collections.
ARCHIVING 2022 PROGRAM
Archiving includes beginning to advanced Short Courses; virtual Behind-the-Scenes Tours; Exhibits; a robust Technical Papers Program; and vibrant networking opportunities. Short courses take place online 23-27 May, with the online technical program 7-10 June.
- Talks are presented live, with real-time text commenting and live Q&A.
- Access to Recordings of live sessions until 30 September 2022 allows you to accommodate your schedule, as well as to go back and review technical program details.
- Program is designed to all you to participate each day, while still having time to attend to other work and personal responsibilities. Events generally fall within 10:00 – 15:00 EDT/16:00 – 21:00 CET.
- Online exhibition and exhibitor programs allows you to engage with vendors.
- Virtual Behind-the-Scenes Tours gives you access to workflows, collections, and colleagues.
- Course and All-Access Passport registration options offer substantive discounts on fees.
