Event Description
Join the Student Friends of the Princeton University Library as we tour the Digital Imaging and Conservation Lab!

Lunch at a local Princeton restaurant following the showcase is included. A separate communication will be sent to registrants to confirm details.

Embark on a tour of our digital imaging lab led by Roel Muñoz, the lab manager. Discover our cutting-edge technology, including the exclusive selenography system - the only one in the US - offering detailed topographical insights. Experience our global map workstation, powered by the Selene system, alongside GIS software, copy stands, and high-resolution cameras with 100-150 megapixels. Witness our specialized arts and crafts solutions for delicate materials, book systems for bound items, and BC100 cameras expertly digitizing manuscripts. Be amazed by our large-scale system, capturing vast materials in single shots. Join us for a factual and enlightening journey through the world of digital imaging.
