Information Management Seminars will conduct two professional
development seminars on document imaging in New York City on
December 13 and 14, 1995.  The topics to be treated are of
interest to serials librarians.

The first seminar, entitled Electronic Document Imaging and
Optical Disks will examine the current state of the art in
electronic document imaging, emphasizing systems that utilize
optical disks as storage media.  It will provide practical
advice for planning, evaluation, selection, and
implementation of document imaging systems and services.

The second seminar, entitled Optical Disks and
Micrographics: Competition or Integration? will analyze the
competitive and complementary relationship between optical
disk and microfilm systems for document storage and
retrieval.  It is specifically intended for organizations
that are considering optical disk systems as replacements for
or supplements to source document microfilming or computer-
output microfilm systems.

The instructor for both seminars is Dr. William Saffady,
Professor in the School of Information Science and Policy,
State University of New York at Albany.  Dr. Saffady is a
well-known author and lecturer on information and document
management topics.
