Colleagues: The JPEG 2000 Interest Group Meeting will be held on Saturday, June 25 from 1:30-3:30pm at the Intercontinental, Pelican I room. With the interest group's upcoming renewal, the IG co-chairs would like to discuss the future of group. Should the scope of the IG broaden to encompass more aspects related to digital imaging such as: -digitization training and best practices -other developing formats -software and hardware -digital forensics -OCR developments -multi-spectral imaging However, we wanted to make this open and collaborative. Is there a significant interest in these topics as they specifically relate to digital imaging? Is there still a need to focus on JPEG2000 exclusively? Would it make more sense for this IG to develop in a different direction or disband altogether? We will also update the group on plans for the "Roadmap to JPEG2000" LITA webinar being held this fall. All are welcome! JPEG 2000 Interest Group Meeting Saturday, June 25 1:30-3:30pm Intercontinental, Pelican I Gretchen Gueguen Digital Archivist, Digital Curation Services University of Virginia Library PO Box 400114 Charlottesville, VA 22904 (434) 982-2980 </pre> Gueguen, Gretchen (gmg2n 2011-06-17T18:55:32 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.information-retrieval.j2karclib/99 <pre>Greetings fellow JPEG2000 enthusiasts -- The JPEG2000 interest group has been a part of LITA (Library and Information Technology Association) division of ALA for most of a decade, and in that time it has been my pleasure to serve as chair of the group. The LITA bylaws, however, state that the chair of an interest group can only serve a maximum of four years, so the IG needs a new chair. Think of this as a great opportunity to volunteer a little bit of time towards a great goal. The management overhead of an interest group is pretty low. There is a LITA chairperson's meeting on Saturday morning of both the midwinter and annual conference. You'll need to respond to occasional e-mails from the LITA office about scheduling interest group meetings for midwinter and annual conferences. And you'll need to report on the interest group discussions after each conference. If you want to put on a program or produce a publication, there are liaisons to LITA committees to help you out in addition to the great support from the LITA staff. If you are interested in the position, let me know. If there is enough interest, we'll do an e-mail ballot of LITA members on this list. On a related note, I will not be able to chair the meeting at the upcoming annual convention on June 26th. I've been ask to participate on a panel that runs at the same time as the interest group meeting. But I will certainly help the incoming chair prepare for the meeting.

This is a very low volume list that discusses the adoption of JPEG2000 in archives and libraries as well as the business of the American Library Association (ALA) Interest Group (IG). I added the e-mail addresses of attendees to the IG; if you want your name removed at any point, please let me know. Also, the minutes for the IG meeting in Boston this past weekend are now up in ALA Connect (http://connect.ala.org/node/92699). The minutes are publicly available, but I believe you need an ALA Connect account in order to comment. All ALA members have one (sign in at http://connect.ala.org/user and/or see http://www.ala.org/Template.cfm?Section=Login&amp;template=/security/nopassword.cfm to recover your password), and you can sign up for one even if you are not a member of ALA (http://connect.ala.org/node/75319). Please note that the interest group needs a new chair starting at the June meeting of ALA. All LITA members are eligible to be chair, and it is a pretty light-weight job. If interested, please get in contact with me.
