The 2018 Upper Midwest Digital Collections Conference (#UMDCC18) will be held on November 8-9th at St. Catherine University campus, St. Paul, Minnesota. The UMDCC provides opportunities for digital collections creators and curators in the region and beyond to network, share best practices, participate in hands-on workshops, and learn from leaders in digital cultural heritage.
In 2017 the Minneapolis Institute of Art (Mia) was one of four US institutions awarded a place in the inaugural cohort of the National Digital Stewardship Residency for Art Information (NDSR Art). As a host institution, Mia selected an emerging information professional as its Resident to take a lead role in building the foundation for the management, care, and long-term preservation of its growing time-based media/digital art collection.
This session will use the recently completed NDSR Art 2017-18 project at Mia as a Case Study to explore the overlaps and divergences between museum, library and archival approaches to digital preservation and digital stewardship. Members of Mia’s library, its Collections Information Management department, and the NDSR Art Resident will each share a unique perspective on the project, reflecting on the impact and overlap of our varied professional practices.
The presenters will include: Erin Barsan, NDSR Art Resident 2017-18, Mia Meg Black, Assistant Librarian, Mia Frances Lloyd-Baynes, Head of Collections Information Management, Mia Heidi Raatz, Collections Information Specialist / Permissions Officer, Mia
