We are pleased to announce the first workshops that we will be offering in 2014.
Due to continued requests and the positive responses to our SPECTRUM Best Practice for Collections Management and Do-it-yourself Digitisation workshops and training, we are offering these courses in Cape Town and in KZN early in the new year. Please go to ETHER Eduction for details and dates.
ETHER Digital is proud to announce that we have established an agency for the top-end range of Zeutschel scanners. Our focus is on heritage digitisation and we will be working with libraries, archives, museums, and similar institutions who hold documentary heritage to offer these scanners as part of a range of digitisation services.
We are promoting the versatile, fast, and cost-effective OM 15000 A3 scanner as highly suited to a range of scanning needs for documents and books up to A3 in size.
On Heritage Day, 24 September, ETHER attended an emotional memorial at the Catholic Church in Boipatong, attended by around 300 people, of which many were survivors and relatives of the victims.
The purpose of the day was to announce the new mobile web site called the Voices of Boipatong, which has been developed by the ETHER Experience business unit of The ETHER Initiative, for Khulumani Support Group, under a funded project from the National Heritage Council. This is available at http://www.xappx.com/boipatong/ until it finds a permanent home.
SPECTRUM, Do-it-yourself Digitisation and Storage workshops at the Anglo-Boer War Museum, Bloemfontein
Thirteen delegates from various institutions in the Free State and KwaZulu-Natal participated in a week of ETHER workshops. These ran from 16-20 September 2013 and were held at the Anglo-Boer War Museum in Bloemfontein.
ETHER Conservation is a business unit in The ETHER Initiative which focuses on conservation products and services.
We will be exhibiting samples of our product range at three very important heritage conferences during October and November, and we will be on hand to discuss any of your conservation needs at these conferences.
