Digital Imaging and Electronic Document Management: 3 day Continuing
Education class at the University of Wisconsin, Madison Campus, Pyle Center
Dates: Thursday June 10 to Saturday June 12, 1999 Time: 8:30 am - 4:30 PM
Fee: $375 CEUs: 2.4 CEUs. Registration deadline: May 24.

This course is for records managers, librarians, and archivists who have
been assigned to specify, install, or manage a document imaging system, but
who are non-technical professionals. Document imaging is the process of
taking documents out of file cabinets and off shelves and storing them in a
computer. In this three-day course you will gain an understanding of how
document imaging can be used and managed in both large- and small-scale
organizations.


You will learn about:

The technology of scanning, importing, transmitting, storing, protecting,
locating, retrieving, viewing, printing, and preserving documents for
document imaging systems and digital libraries.

Image and document formats, multimedia, rich text, GIS (Geographic
Information Systems), CAD (Computer Aided Design), and image enabled
databases.

System design issues in hardware, software, ergonomics, and workflow.

Emerging technologies such as the DVD Digital Video Disc and very high
speed Internet, Intranet, and extranet links and protocols.

The implications of Windows 98 and Windows 2000 for system design.

Several system designs will be done based on system requirements provided
by participants. You are encouraged to bring the requirements for your
planned document imaging system to the class.
