Sound and Moving Images Special Interest Section - Coffee Chat

Sound and Moving Image Special Interest Section

Spring Coffee Chat

Join your fellow archivists for an informal, one hour Zoom discussion about sound and moving image archival records. SMISIS wants to generate a stronger sense of community and provide a place where members can chat about topics such as the benefits and challenges of digitizing audiovisual records, descriptive practices, new acquisitions, and the growing backlog of migrating content from obsolete formats. 

This participant-driven conversation is an opportunity to ask your questions, share your experiences and ongoing projects, and leave with new knowledge about how to tackle (or, at the very least, approach) processing audiovisual records. It is open to all who work (or plan to work) with sound and moving image archival records including professional archivists, memory workers, activists, volunteers, and students.
