[PADG:891] Re: PADG Poster Session

["Cathleen Martyniak" <cathy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Karen and all,

Yes, having a digital photo archive of the poster sessions would be lovely, especially when Jane and I, or future PADG Chairs, publicize the poster sessions.  

Additionally, having data about the content of each poster available will be nice, as Karen said, for those who could not attend. 

I guess the next questions are:

1.  Who will take the pictures? Who will organize the archive? Will it be the same person over time? 

2.  What server will store and make the digital images available? One at ALCTS? Or one at the Library of a PADGer? Will it be the same server over time? 

3.  What information about the poster should be made available? I assume some basics such as Presenter name and contact info, full text of poster, all images, any links to web sites associated with poster or project, which conference poster was presented at, what else??


Thanks,

Cathy

On a related note, at Mid Winter, PARS MC briefly discussed the idea that a digital photo archive of poster sessions might be helpful to folks who can't attend ALA and or the PADG session, and that this would also be a "recruiting" tool to demonstrate the types of posters sessions that could be mounted. We haven't gone further with the idea, so if anyone has thoughts ideas about how this might be implemented, if of sufficient  interest, please let me know.

PS : The copy of the PARS MC writeup that I did for this list does not appear in the PADG-L archive, should I resend?

All,
 
Good afternoon, fellow PADGers.  It is time to get your Preservation poster session thinking caps on because PADG in New Orleans is 16 weeks from tomorrow!!  PADG will be held during the afternoon of Friday, June 23rd.  Exact time and location are not yet settled but we will let you know ASAP.
 
As we have done at the last 3 PADG meetings, Jane and I would like to offer you the opportunity to share analyses of your research agenda, describe innovative programs you have undertaken at your institution or gather feedback from your colleagues on a topic of importance to you. Previous poster session examples include repairing deteriorated acetate negatives, the Team approach to Preservation and a formula to determine insurance values of your Collection for use in disaster planning.
 
Attached, please find the revised Annual 2006 poster session guidelines.  Email Jane ( jane_hedberg@xxxxxxxxxxx ) or myself with any questions you may have re: the poster session guidelines or to submit a poster session idea.
 
We look forward to yet another vibrant and exciting poster session in the Big Easy.
 
Thanks,

Cathy
