JUST ADDED: Arrangement & Description of Audiovisual Materials

  • 1.  JUST ADDED: Arrangement & Description of Audiovisual Materials

    Posted Sep 09, 2021 05:27 PM
    Learn how to arrange and describe analog sound, video, and film materials found in mixed-media archival collections over two 4-hour sessions. Day 1 will focus on understanding analog audiovisual media with sections on format identification, understanding the lifecycle of different types of audiovisual records, pre-processing assessment, and physical and intellectual arrangement. On Day 2 we will continue the arrangement discussion and then focus primarily on description of audiovisual materials in finding aids, using EAD and DACS. Throughout the workshop we will virtually process a case study collection for a concrete application of skills discussed in the lectures.

    This course WILL count towards the in-person requirement for the A&D program.

    Course will run two half-days-December 16 (11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. U.S. central time) and December 17 (11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. U.S. central time).
