Slack’s choice to remove location from journalists’ photos is another example of why metadata can be so important — even life-threatening. That’s why this spring we are offering an entire course on the subject, taught by @nmdjohn yro.slashdot.org/story/20/05…

Plenty of options for kids to enjoy activities both indoors and out right now. We have been enjoying the “Stop Motion Video” free app. Check it out and make a #lego video! #howto #bewell #dontworry #DIY

Looking forward to teaching this course in May! We’ve been entirely online and asynchronous since the beginning of this program so there’s no need to worry about any classroom disruptions-if you can connect, you’re good to go.
It’s easy to get lost in the weeds of metadata, with so many acronyms and standards to keep track of. But our DIG 510 course teaches you the underlying principles that apply to all metadata schemes, to help you see the forest for the trees. Online this May DigitalCuration.UMaine.edu

I don't know if everyone's a curator now, but everyone seems to think "Everyone's a Curator Now" is a good title for an article

Remember when the Smithsonian threatened to sue a student for making this fabulous poster for a history class? The times are a-changin. “Smithsonian Releases 2.8 Million Images Into Public Domain” #openaccess #history smithsonianmag.com/smithsoni…

Visiting family in Delaware during kiddos spring break. My mom just mentioned we should have a “VHS movie Night” 🍿 and play “old movies” for the kids. @DigitCurator #digitalpreservation
