Librarians and Archivists should continue learning after graduation through classes, workshops, and conferences. Lyrasis is an organization that specializes in educational classes in new trends or technologies, management, or what I like to call "things you probably should learn a little more about but didn't learn in school." Some classes are at actual buildings, but many are what they call "Live (Online)," live classes taught via a special Internet chatroom, where you can interact with the professor and other attendees. I have taken one live online class and have enjoyed the format very much. Chatroom capabilities have come a long way! (Lyrasis also offers Live (On Demand) classes, but I have not attended one, yet.)
Lyrasis is offering a class called "The Preservation of Recorded Sound Media, Digital and Analog" on February 5 from 10am-12pm. It will discuss formats, preservation concerns, and digitization options. I am very interested in the digitization options, and look forward to attending!
