The VRC will be conducting a workshop for SCAD faculty, staff, and students on Wednesday, April 27, 2:30 p.m. – 4:00 p.m., Jen Library, room 108. The purpose of this session is to highlight the digital resources that are available to faculty and to demonstrate the fundamentals of using ARTstor to find and save images, to download and organize images from the SCAD Digital Image Database (DID), and how to incorporate these images using the ARTstor Offline Image Viewer (OIV) to create class presentations. Participants will also learn how to have images added to the SCAD DID to fill the needs of specific courses and student presentations.

Seating is limited so please email vrc@scad.edu, or call 525-4726 to reserve a spot.
