[MCN-L] Looking for Digitization Strategy/Implementation Plans
Fellow MCNers - We are just starting to develop a comprehensive Digitization Strategy for our Museum. Although, like many others, we've put our foot into the water of digitizing our holdings, we do not have an institution-wide document that outlines what we are expecting to achieve and what our vision is of this program. While I have looked at a number of documents, including the Smithsonian Digitization Strategy (which is extremely high-level and conceptual) I'd be very grateful if anyone out there could share any similar documents and plans they have created on this topic. Essentially we are trying to develop a document that describes not just what we want to achieve, but also provides an implementation plan - the timeline, budget and resources (both equipment and people) and also what is the order in which we digitize (by media type, by topic, or some other approach.) Any documents that pertain to this topic would be very welcome. When our Strategy/Plan is complete I will(of course) be more than happy to share it with others. Thanks so much.

[MCN-L] CAL SIG members meeting Berkeley, May 21?
AAM begins on May 22nd, so lots of folks will be flying into Houston 21-22 On Wed, Jan 12, 2011 at 4:20 PM, Misunas, Marla mmisunas at sfmoma.org wrote: Hi all, I'm working with our friends at UC Berkeley to arrange a Cal SIG meeting there for us in May. Due to the end of the school year, things are pretty busy and though we normally meet on Fridays, it may not work this time around. Would you come to Berkeley for the meeting on Saturday, May 21? Or is Friday the only day you could come? Meetings are usually 10-5-ish, depending on the program. Let me know what you think, we'll plan based on your responses.
