We have some great speakers lined up this year for meta|morphosis 08. The keynote will be presented by Al Cross, the director of the Institute for Rural Journalism. He will speak about the importance of preserving small town newspapers.
Errol Somay from the Library of Virginia will be speaking about issues related to outsourcing: writing rfp's, pitfalls to avoid, vendor relations, etc. Errol is a great speaker and I think everyone will find his presentation informative.
This year we are also fortunate to have Derek Jenkins from IImage Retrieval, Inc. Derek has a background in IT and is an expert in scanner technology. Derek will be offering a session on what to look for in a scanner and how to objectively evaluate scanner performance.
New this year are the hands-on sessions we are offering on day 2. Participants will be breaking into smallish groups and will cycle through sessions on film scanning, image evaluation, and digging into metadata.
This all will add up to an even better experience for participants.
