The California SIG invites all California-based MCN delegates to join us for our annual meeting at the MCN conference on Friday, November 14, 12:00 in the Franklin Room. We will most likely gather there and head off to a nearby restaurant for lunch. We'll be brainstorming ideas for our next Cal SIG event in Southern California in 2009; and sessions to sponsor for '09.
Be sure to catch our SIG-sponsored panel "Broadening the Tapestry: Telling a Story with Archival Materials," at 10:30 on Thursday. Three panelists will discuss creating online exhibitions and other projects using materials drawn from their archives. Learn about unique technical and storytelling challenges, and ways in which they were resolved by the panelists. Speakers will also talk about upcoming projects and new applications. Our SIG's mission statement: The MCN California Special Interest Group (CAL SIG) serves as a regional forum to promote communication about the usage of digital technologies in the California cultural heritage community. The group meets periodically in California, at the discretion of the Chair(s), to share new developments and challenges, to visit each others' facilities, and to network. See you soon!
