12th SEAPAVAA CONFERENCE & GENERAL ASSEMBLY
Archiving and Digitization: Dreams and Nightmares
Manila Hotel, Manila, Philippines
June 23-27, 2008
PRELIMINARY CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT
Metro Manila, Philippines is the next venue for the 12th SEAPAVAA Conference and General Assembly come June 23-27, 2008 to be held at the Manila Hotel, Manila. It will be hosted by the Philippine Information Agency (PIA), in cooperation with the Society of Filipino Archivists (SFA), the Society of Film Archivists (SOFIA) and the Department of Foreign Affairs.
Conference Activities
§ Institutional visits
§ Workshops
§ ExcursionsThe event will feature the following:
§ 2-day symposium
§ The SEAPAVAA General Assembly Meeting
§ Archive Gems Screenings Evening
§ Host country screening night
Conference Theme: “Archiving and Digitization: Dreams and Nightmares”
Digital technology is said to provide multiple solutions to many issues and concerns affecting the preservation of and access to archival documents. This is particularly true with regards to storage facilities and near real time access to information and the archival collection. In the rush to embrace digital technology, we have ventured into the “how to” but given much less attention to the “what ifs.”
The move to digital archiving is a fact. That debate is over. But it is a move beset with numerous financial, practical, ethical and philosophical consequences whose impact we are only beginning to fully understand.
§ What does digital preservation really mean?
When documents are digitized, are they presumed preserved? How do you guarantee the authenticity of documents?
§ What are the implications of moving to Digital Archiving?
What are the risks involved in migrating analoque works to digital? What is the real cost over time of digital preservation? What expertise, tools, resources, and organizational structures will be needed to ensure growth and long term management of digital archives? What are the safest storage strategies? How does all this affect our concept of institutional archives?
§ Are fundamental analogue concepts like “original”, “content”, “carrier” meaningful any more in the digital domain?
What is the future for our “legacy” collections of analogue materials?
§ What beginning steps could be undertaken to facilitate the move to digital archiving?
This conference will grapple with these and other “what if” dreams and nightmares in our digital future. It will look for answers and aim to move the global debate forward.

May 26 - 27, 2008 Seminar: “E-Learning and D-World : Givi ng School Libraries / Media Centers the Cutti ng Edgeâ€, ATENEO DE MANILA HIGH SCHOOL EDU
Dear Colleagues,
We are now entering a digital era in the 21st century which is revolutionizing the information cycle and changing the way school libraries/media centers are being managed. As media center coordinators/ librarians, we face great challenges ahead of us in the forms of emerging technologies in disseminating information, in the management of digital resources, as well as in the integration of new approaches to enhance teaching and learning. But beyond all these is the challenge to encourage our students to read and, at the same time, develop their research abilities using various types of formats.
Because of these new challenges facing us today, the Educational Media Center of the Ateneo de Manila High School is again conducting another seminar as part of its continuing education program for media center coordinators, school librarians, and AV personnel. The theme of this year’s seminar is “E-Learning and D-World : Giving School Libraries / Media Centers the Cutting Edge†which is based on the theme of the 36th Annual Conference of the International Association of School Librarianship. In this seminar, some of the learnings/insights gained from the conference by two of its participants from the Philippines will be echoed. Moreover, several librarians/media specialists have been invited to share their knowledge and expertise on topics related to the theme but applied to Philippine setting.
This two-day seminar will be held on May 26 - 27, 2008 at the Conference Hall of the Social Development Complex, Ateneo de Manila University, Loyola Heights, Quezon City. The registration fee is P1,500.00 which covers seminar meals, snacks, hand-outs, and certificate. For further information or confirmation to this invitation, please contact Ms. Julie Ann Bernardo at telephone number 426-6001 local 6206, fax number 426-5914 or you can e-mail me at eperalejo@ateneo. edu not later than May 15, 2008. Attached is a copy of the seminar program and registration form. We look forward to seeing you.
Thank you.
Sincerely yours,
