Spaces remaining on Preservation for Access: Managing Paper Based Collections
Tuesday 12th June 2007
The British Library, Euston Road, London
9.30am to 4.30pm
Do you have paper based collections within your organisation? Want to know more about managing care and access to paper based collections in a museum, library, or archive environment? Then this one day workshop is for you.
This one day event has been organised for MLA London by the National Preservation Office and brings together some of the country's leading experts on the care and management of paper based collections in our museums, libraries, and archives.
Speakers will consider the development of preservation policy and strategy, current developments and best practice in environmental monitoring, wider conservation issues for paper based collections in archives and museums, packing and moving book and paper collections, and briefing. The day will end with a general 'preservation clinic' where participants are invited to bring issues from their collections for advice from the expert panel.
By the end of the day participants will:
* Understand the basics of developing a collection wide preservation strategy and prioritising a collection's conservation needs
* Understand current best practice in environmental monitoring and control
* Be confident to plan a collection move
* Be confident to brief, commission, manage, and work with specialist conservators
* Have had the opportunity to discuss specific preservation issues and problems with an expert panel.
Speakers: Alison Walker (National Preservation Office), Jonathan Rhys-Lewis (Preservation and Collections Management Consultant), Caroline Bendix (Library conservator and trainer)
A light lunch will be provided.
