The Summer Educational Institute for Digital Stewardship of Visual Information (SEI) is a joint project of the Art Libraries Society of North America (ARLIS/NA) and the Visual Resources Association Foundation (VRAF). SEI provides information professionals with a substantive educational and professional development opportunity centered on digital stewardship, the information, and experience needed to stay current in a rapidly changing field, and the opportunity to create and be part of a network of supportive colleagues.

SEI 2020 will present an overview of the digital life cycle in a broad range of topics, starting with designing and implementing a project to sharing the final product with others. This intensive three and a half-day workshop features a curriculum taught by expert instructors who cover:

• Project Management
• Copyright and Intellectual Property
• Digitization
• Metadata and Critical Cataloging
• DAMs, Digital Curation, and Digital Repositories
• Diversity, Equity, Accessibility, and Inclusivity in Digital Collections

In addition to these topics, participants will be able to customize their SEI experience with “Choose Your Own Adventure” breakout sessions.
