Preserving historic photographs
Preservation Advisory Centre training day / British Library, London, 12
July 2012
This one day training session is led by Susie Clark, accredited
photographic conservator. It is aimed at those with responsibility for
the care of photographic collections regardless of institutional
context.
The day provides an introduction to understanding and identifying
photographic processes and their vulnerability, information on common
conservation problems and solutions, and the preservation measures that
can be taken to prolong the life and accessibility of photographic
collections. Contact with real examples of different photographic
processes is an important feature of this training session which is
therefore limited to only 16 places. At the end of the day participants
will be able to identify historic photographic processes, explain how
damage is caused, implement appropriate preservation measures and
commission conservation work.
