Management Workshop

Sponsored by the North Carolina Preservation Consortium

August 3, 2005

Elon University

9:00 AM - 4:00 PM


The preservation of library and archives collections requires effective 
management strategies to ensure that material is available for present and 
future use.  This workshop will address the composition of materials, 
causes of damage and decomposition, elements of a preservation program, 
management models, budgets, assessment surveys, and phased preservation. 
Funding, education, and advocacy issues will also be discussed.  This 
workshop is designed for personnel responsible for managing preservation 
in all types of libraries, archives, and record centers.  Curators in 
museums and historic sites may also find this workshop valuable for 
improving the preservation of their collections.  Students in library, 
information, archives, museum, and conservation programs are invited to 
attend.  No prior education or experience in preservation is required.

preservation of information content, and the medium as artifact, in new 
and traditional formats for present and future generations.
