14th National Museum Publishing Seminar

Posted on 4 March 2010 | Comments Off

Editors, curators, Web and new media producers, designers, printers, marketing and public relations staff, publishers-we’re all thinking about the relationship between print and online sources, and the impact that new media have on our traditional practices. Although we have touched on this theme at some of our previous museum publishing seminars, you will want to join your colleagues at the 14th National Museum Publishing Seminar in June when we spotlight this topic.

We will address the increasingly complicated question of “how we read,” explore the relationship inside the museum between the Web and new media teams and the publications office, talk about writing and designing for the Web, and hear from colleagues at the Getty about their timely and important initiative to support online scholarly catalogues. These and many other topics-ranging from the one-person publishing office and what to expect on a press check to digital workflows and family-friendly publishing-will benefit from the perspectives brought to bear by professionals from throughout North America and abroad. From botanical gardens and art museums to zoos, science museums, and historic houses, institutions of every type and size will want to send representatives to the Seminar.
