New WebJunction Digital Collections Stewardship Course Available!
by Gallo, Biz (MDE) 03 May '22

03 May '22

Explore the new Digital Collections Stewardship Course Series<https://learn.webjunction.org/course/index.php?categoryid=61> from WebJunction! Anyone with an internet connection can attend and participate in free WebJunction webinars, enabling you to meet and learn from library leaders and practitioners around the country. The webinars are all recorded and made available for you to watch in the WebJunction Course Catalog. See additional details below about this seven part, self-guided series for creating and sharing digital collections: Creating and sharing digital collections is an important way that libraries can share and preserve unique local history, culture, stories, and artifacts. Digital collections offer an opportunity to represent a diversity of experiences and voices in your community that may be missing from your physical collection. Planning, creating, managing, and preserving digital collections, however, can be resource-intensive work that requires technology, new skills, and an ongoing commitment to maintain them. Understanding the full lifecycle of digital stewardship is critical to successful digital collections. This course series, designed specifically with the needs of small cultural institutions in mind, will guide you through the lifecycle of digital stewardship. This lifecycle describes the entire ongoing range of tasks and activities necessary to successfully share digital collections. If you are new to digital collections, we encourage you to take these courses sequentially; if not, feel free to choose the courses that fit your needs. This project was made possible in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services. Biz Gallo Statewide Digitization Initiatives Coordinator Library of Michigan, 702 W. Kalamazoo, Lansing, MI 48915 GalloB(a)michigan.gov<mailto:GalloB@michigan.gov> | 517-335-1402 she/her/hers Discover digital collections from cultural institutions throughout the state at Michigan Memories<https://michmemories.org/>!

No registration needed, to enjoy this virtual event, just visit our Facebook homepage here --> https://www.facebook.com/richlandclib at 7PM on Thursday! About the Author: "Ellen Airgood grew up on a farm in Michigan’s thumb, where her favorite things to do were read books, ride horses, swing in her tire swing, and write stories. She almost left the University of Michigan after her first year to go back home and farm, but did return to school after her parents offered to cosign the loan for the new fencing she’d need to raise beef cattle on their eighty acres, the only crop they considered feasible. (She was a vegetarian at the time.) She graduated with a Bachelor’s Science from the School of Natural Resources and Environment and now lives on the shore of Lake Superior in the Upper Peninsula, where she writes and owns a diner along with her husband." - Amazon.com Anna Merritt Assistant Director Richland Community Library 8951 Park Street Richland, MI 49083 (269) 629-9085 https://www.richlandlibrary.org/ -- This message has been scanned by E.F.A.
