Three more workshops will be offered over the spring and summer, including Using Metadata for Audiovisual Collection Management, Managing File-based Collection for Smaller Institutions, and another session on Processing Audio and Video Collections. This year, two of the classes will be held in Westchester County in order to provide better service to the full METRO membership area.

And many thanks to METRO and the New York State Archives for subsidizing these offerings.
