    Good morning, 

    I hope everyone is enjoying their summer!

    If you are attending ALA Annual in Chicago, please join us for the Digital Conversion Interest Group meeting on Saturday, June 24th at 9:00am. This session will be held in McCormick Place, W181C and will be in-person only. For members that can not attend, session notes will be provided afterward. 

    It has been a big year for activities surrounding digital conversion! FADGI's updated Guidelines for Still Imaging were approved, institutions are pursuing more DEIA projects, and ongoing copyright lawsuits could shape future practices for digital conversion, controlled digital lending, etc. This meeting is designed to be an open discussion, so please come and connect. We would love to hear your thoughts, projects, successes and challenges for the upcoming year. 

    See you there, 

    Beth R.
