FADGI Webinar Series from LYRASIS
LYRASIS is offering a webinar series on FADGI (Federal Agencies Digitization Guidelines Initiative): Standards-Compliant Still Image Digitization, and we will be tuning-in in the Digital Scholar Studio!
From the LYRASIS website:
What makes an image a “good” image? How can image quality be measured in a standards-compliant, repeatable fashion? Digitization consumes resources, and there only may be a single opportunity to convert certain collections; how can we make sure that it is done in accordance with the relevant guidelines and that the digital assets created will endure over the long term? This series of five webinars will examine the Federal Agency Digitization Guidelines Initiative (FADGI) as it applies to still imaging for cultural heritage institutions. After an overview of FADGI, we will spend time reviewing each of its core metrics in detail, and share hands-on and practical applications of these metrics in real digitization projects.
We will be hosting a veiwing of the first Webinar in the series, Intro to FADGI for Still Image Digitization, on Wednesday, July 24th, 2-3 pm in the Digital Scholar Studio GL 540
