[Robert James]

Preservation Management Workshop

Sponsored by the North Carolina Preservation Consortium

October 20, 2006

Sampson-Livermore Library
University of North Carolina at Pembroke

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 and 
information science, archives, public history, museum, and conservation 
programs are invited to attend.  No prior education or experience in 
preservation is required.

The North Carolina Preservation Consortium (NCPC) is a 501C3 nonprofit 
organization dedicated to the preservation of educational, research, 
historical, and cultural collections in our state's archives, libraries, 
museums, historic sites, document depositories, and record centers. NCPC 
also informs the general public about preservation to safeguard private 
collections and family treasures. Our preservation mission addresses the 
proper care and handling of materials; storage and environmental control; 
disaster preparedness and recovery; the repair, reformatting and 
conservation of damaged items; and collection security. NCPC supports the 
preservation of information content, and the medium as artifact, in new 
and traditional formats for present and future generations.
