Working with Images: A Rough Guide for Researchers

Description

Images are becoming increasingly important in many disciplines beyond those with long-established visual research methods. Thanks to the proliferation of images across social media, the internet is also a source of rich collections of visual material which is easier to share, store and transform than ever before. This introductory session for graduate students and researchers interested in developing skills in using images for their personal research is run in collaboration with the Department of Art History.

It will offer a brief introduction to:
 – making digital images: a technical overview for non-specialists
 – storing and managing images in your personal collection
 – copyright, creative commons and image licensing: a rough guide
 – using image resources: an introduction to ArtStor

The event is free to attend but registration is required.  Please book your place by clicking on the online registration link on this page.
