Information Management Seminars will present two new
professional development seminars on computer-based
document imaging and information storage in New York City
on December 5 and 6, 1996.  The seminars are intended for
records managers, office systems analysts, computer
specialists, librarians, archivists, and other information
professionals involved in the storage and retrieval of
computerized documents and data.
 
The first seminar, entitled "Cost Analysis Concepts and
Methods for Computer-Based Document Management" will
examine cost calculation and justification techniques for
electronic document imaging and full-text document
storage systems.  The second seminar, entitled "Computer
Storage Devices and Media for Electronic Recordkeeping"
will survey and compare magnetic and optical storage
technologies and products for data bases, text files,
images, and other electronic records.  Both seminars will
provide practical advice for planning, evaluating,
selecting, and implementing computer-based information
systems.
 
The enrollment fee is $219 per person per seminar.  There
is a special package price of $390 for persons attending
both seminars.  Future offerings of these seminars are
scheduled for Orlando on March 20-21, 1997; Detroit on
June 5-6, 1997; and Boston on June 12-13, 1997.
 
The instructor for these seminars is Dr. William Saffady,
Professor in the School of Information Science and Policy,
State University of New York at Albany and a well-known
author and lecturer on information management topics.
The seminars are based, in part, on two of Dr.Saffady's
recent books: "Electronic Document Imaging: A State of
the Art Report" and "Computer Storage Technologies: A
Guide for Electronic Recordkeeping."  Both books were
published by ARMA International in 1996.
