SUMMARY:ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW. MODULE 6: MAKING COLLECTIONS ACCESSIBLE
DESCRIPTION:The RHSV is offering a series of 6 linked workshops which cover cataloguing and digitisation. This series of workshops starts with basic concepts and builds in complexity. \nWe have spaced the workshops so that participants have time in which to put into practice their new skills before the next workshop. \nSome participants will want to book for the full series of 6 workshops and others will want to choose those individual workshops that are most suitable for them. So\, although the series is designed as a cohesive whole\, the individual workshops also work as stand-alone training sessions. \nAll workshops are limited to 20 participants and will be lead by Sophie Shilling\, our digital expert. They are all to be held at the RHSV: Officers’ Mess Upstairs\, RHSV 239 A’Beckett St\, Melbourne. This room\, unfortunately\,  is only accessible by a staircase – there is no disabled access. \nTHE LAST IN THE SERIES …\nMODULE 6: MAKING COLLECTIONS ACCESSIBLE\nFRIDAY 13 DECEMBER 1PM – 4PM\nObjects need to be accessible\, whether that is to people managing a collection\, to visitors\, or to the public. This workshop will introduce themes of copyright and privacy that relate to historical collections. Participants will learn how to optimise catalogue records for discovery\, how to write for social media\, and create digital exhibitions. \nINDIVIDUAL WORKSHOPS: RHSV MEMBERS: $25       NON-RHSV MEMBERS: $35\nQUERIES: +61 3 9326 9288 / OFFICE@HISTORYVICTORIA.ORG.AU\n\nAnd\, finally\, a date-claimer for our first workshop in 2020: \nBORN DIGITAL\nFRIDAY 24 JANUARY 2020 1PM – 4PM\, OFFICERS’ MESS UPSTAIRS\, RHSV 239 A’BECKETT ST\, MELBOURNE\nThis workshop is a stand-alone workshop which will be presented in partnership with AMaGA.

SUMMARY:ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW. MODULE 5: LOOKING AFTER DIGITAL FILES
DESCRIPTION:The RHSV is offering a series of 6 linked workshops which cover cataloguing and digitisation. This series of workshops starts with basic concepts and builds in complexity. \nWe have spaced the workshops so that participants have time in which to put into practice their new skills before the next workshop. \nSome participants will want to book for the full series of 6 workshops and others will want to choose those individual workshops that are most suitable for them. So\, although the series is designed as a cohesive whole\, the individual workshops also work as stand-alone training sessions. \nAll workshops are limited to 20 participants and will be lead by Sophie Shilling\, our digital expert. They are all to be held at the RHSV: Officers’ Mess Upstairs\, RHSV 239 A’Beckett St\, Melbourne. This room\, unfortunately\,  is only accessible by a staircase – there is no disabled access. \nMODULE 5: LOOKING AFTER DIGITAL FILES\nFRIDAY 22 NOVEMBER 1PM – 4PM\nThis is a basic digital preservation workshop. The workshop will begin with brief project management skills including templates for policies and procedures. We will discuss digital storage\, how to create backups\, and how to check if files are damaged.

This series of workshops starts with basic concepts and builds in complexity. \nWe have spaced the workshops so that participants have time in which to put into practice their new skills before the next workshop. \nSome participants will want to book for the full series of 6 workshops and others will want to choose those individual workshops that are most suitable for them. So\, although the series is designed as a cohesive whole\, the individual workshops also work as stand-alone training sessions. The first two workshops repeat ones we offered earlier in 2019. \nAll workshops are limited to 20 participants and will be lead by Sophie Shilling\, our digital expert. They are all to be held at the RHSV: Officers’ Mess Upstairs\, RHSV 239 A’Beckett St\, Melbourne. This room\, unfortunately\,  is only accessible by a staircase – there is no disabled access. \nModule 1: Computer cataloguing for absolute beginners\nFRIDAY 26 JULY 1PM – 4PM\nThis is a workshop for those who are new to computers\, and small organisations who do not have the resources to use cataloguing software. Using only Excel\, we will demonstrate how to create a simple catalogue that still complies with international standards. It will cover some cataloguing terminology\, simple keyboard shortcuts for efficiency\, and how to back-up your Excel files. We will also learn how to use and create a thesaurus/controlled vocabulary. By the end of this workshop\, participants will be able to create a catalogue in Excel that can be exported to a cataloguing software program in the future. \nModule 2: Using cataloguing software\nFRIDAY 6 SEPTEMBER 1PM – 4PM\nThis workshop is for small organisations that are going to start use cataloguing software.

The workshop will begin with brief project management skills including templates for policies and procedures. We will discuss digital storage\, how to create backups\, and how to check if files are damaged. Participants will learn how to describe an object using Dublin Core so that digital files can be discoverable. \nModule 6: Making collections accessible\nFRIDAY 13 DECEMBER 1PM – 4PM\nObjects need to be accessible\, whether that is to people managing a collection\, to visitors\, or to the public. This workshop will introduce themes of copyright and privacy that relate to historical collections.
