Robert Buckley of the National Archives of the UAE heads up the final programme of speakers for the upcoming ‘Current Trends and Future Directions for Digital Imaging in Libraries and Archives’ conference at the Wellcome Trust on 10th November, which has been announced today.

Providing his ‘Contemporary View of Image Formats for Libraries and Archives,’ Robert will set the scene for the rest of the day and introduce issues of validation, compression and preservation, which have each become more important in image management as collections grow in size and complexity. 

The one-day conference will bring together a range of specialist practitioners with experience of JP2K for digital libraries and digital archives, and will shed light on current and emerging practice and will enable a debate about future directions.
