Information Management Seminars will present two new professional
development seminars on imaging/data management in the metro Detroit area
(Troy, Michigan) on June 5-6, 1997 and in the Boston area (Cambridge) on
June 12-13, 1997. The seminars are intended for records managers, office
systems analysts, computer specialists, librarians, archivists, and other
information professionals involved with computerized storage and retrieval
of documents and data.
The first seminar, entitled "Computer Storage Devices and Media for
Electronic Recordkeeping" will survey and compare magnetic and optical
storage technologies and products for data bases, text files, images, and
other electronic records. The second seminar entitled "Cost Analysis for
Electronic Document Imaging" will examine cost calculation and
justification concepts and methods for electronic document imaging
implementations. Both seminars will provide practical advice for planning,
evaluating, selecting, and implementing computer-based information
systems.
The enrollment fee is $230 per person per seminar. There is a special
package price of $399 for persons attending both seminars.
The instructor for these seminars is Dr. William Saffady, Professor in the
School of Information Science and Policy, State University of New York at
Albany and a well-known author and lecturer on information management
topics. The seminars are based, in part, on two of Dr.Saffady's recent
books: "Electronic Document Imaging: A State of the Art Report" and
"Computer Storage Technologies: A Guide for Electronic Recordkeeping."
Both books were published by ARMA International in 1996.
