This five-day workshop will provide an intensive grounding in the theory
and practice of audiovisual archiving, enabling curators to develop
strategies to safeguard their collections.  The training will be led by
a range of expert film, video and audio curators from across Europe.
They will address issues such as the handling and storage of analogue
originals, digitisation and restoration, managing digital assets and
enabling access and reuse.

Speaker biographies and a preliminary programme are now available on the
course website.    

The workshop is aimed at those responsible for audiovisual
collections.  As an introductory course it is suited to curators without
specialist audiovisual or technical training.  The workshop will be
conducted in English.
