The October 13, 2004 deadline for proposals for the IS&T's Archiving
Conference 2005 is fast approaching. We encourage practitioners,
researchers, scholars, scientists and others engaged in the
technical arenas of archiving to submit a brief abstract of an
original paper for this unique conference that brings together
international experts in industry and cultural heritage charged with
preserving personal and institutional collections.

Please note that we have reduced the required size of the extended
abstract for submission to 750 words. The "Invitation and
Instructions to Authors" at the IS&T web site provides full
instructions to submit proposals, via a web-based submission form.
See
<URL:http://www.imaging.org/conferences/archiving2005/authors.cfm>.

Join us and our cooperating societies in a program that includes
tutorials, invited presentations, and refereed papers (yours!). Two
of the featured keynote speakers at Archiving 2005 will be Clifford
Lynch, Executive Director of CNI, and Deanna Marcum, Associate
Librarian for Library Services at the Library of Congress.

IS&T has gained wide reaching support from both the imaging and
archiving communities which confirms our view of the timeliness and
relevance of this meeting.  Cooperating organizations include:

    AIC (American Institute for Conservation of Historic and
        Artistic Works)
    ALCTS  (Association for Library Collections and Technical
        Services)
    CNI  (Coalition for Networked Information)
    DLF (Digital Library Federation)
    ECPA (European Commission on Preservation and Access)
    ISCC (Inter-Society Color Council)
    MCN (Museum Computer Network)
    OCLC (Online Computer Library Center)
    RLG  (Research Library Group)
    SPIE (The International Society for Optical Engineering)

Share your expertise in this field by submitting an abstract via the
IS&T web site today. We look forward to reviewing your proposal.
