The Institute for Advanced Technology at the University of
Virginia(http://www.iath.virginia.edu/) is very pleased to announce that
Daniel Pitti will join the IATH staff as Project Director on April 1, 1997.
Most recently, Daniel has been the Librarian for Advanced Technologies at
the University of California, Berkeley where he was the author or joint
author of several Department of Education and National Endowment for the
Humanities grant projects working towards providing standardized access
to primary resource materials in libraries and archives. As members of this
list know, Daniel is highly regarded for his work as coordinator of the
Encoded Archival Description initiative; IATH hopes that some of its
projects will
provide a testing ground for the work of the EAD and that, in his role as
Project
Director, Daniel Pitti might find opportunities to consult on the continuing
development of the EAD DTD.
The Institute for Advanced Technology supports humanities research
projects at the University of Virginia and elsewhere; its work includes
substantial applications and innovations in SGML, as well as digital
imaging, three-dimensional modeling, database development, and the
development and distribution of software for humanities research. Daniel
will be a key member of the IATH team, and we look forward to a long and
fruitful collaboration.
