Re: [MCN-L] reminder: IIIF Bay Area museum meet-up

[Brenner, Peter]

Layna,

Was great seeing you this last week. Would have loved to made the event.
Trying to pitch IIIF at LACMA but need some ammo.
Would love to hear any feedback/discussion related to this trend if you
could share.
Many thanks
Best,
Peter

 Here is an excerpt from our policy at the MIA.  We treat still and
video
 the
 same.

 *May I photograph in the MIA?   *

 Yes?with a few precautions to ensure the safety of visitors and
artwork. If
 it?s for personal use and without a tripod, feel free to use your
still or
 video camera. Please note: photography or filming of artworks that are
on
 loan to the museum requires prior permission.

 *How do I know if an artwork is on loan?  *

 On the label, look for the words ?loan,? ?lent by,? ?private
collection,?
 or
 the name of a museum other than the MIA. Also, numbers assigned to
loaned
 objects begin with an ?L.? To request permission to film, photograph,
or
 copy a loaned object, call our Registration Office at (612) 870-3123
during
 regular work hours.

   We?re reviewing our policy on whether videotaping is allowed in our

  A couple quick questions:
 
  Do you have a policy and if so, what is it?
 
  Is your institution currently engaged in or planning a review of
your
  policy?
 
  What do you think would be an appropriate policy now?
 
  Many thanks for any feedback, anecdotal or otherwise.

[MCN-L] conference presentations [faked-from]

[Brenner, Peter]

I would second Alan's request in light that the museum community often
acquires digital files from each other for reproduction.  A spec for
printers might help facilitate consistent reproduction.

Rob,

Is it too late to get on the agenda for MCN 2007?
It could be a panel or poster session.

I want to make a report of a study I will soon initiate with half a
dozen
other museums to follow up on a museum spec for delivering files to
offset
lithographers.

I expect we will incorporate this into UPDIG.
This would be a follow up to a discussion I had in my 2006 panel in
Pasadena.

Alan
