ALCTS webinar: Archival 101: Dealing with Suppliers of Archival Products
Date: April 25, 2013
All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11am Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1pm Central, and 2pm Eastern time.
Do you need to purchase archival supplies for your organization or even
yourself?
Are you confused by the terminology and not sure about the differences
between the various vendors?
Not finding exactly what you are looking for and unsure about adapting
different products?
Archival 101 is designed to demystify the archival product market for
the layperson and non-preservation specialist. The presentation will
provide an overview of the conservation and preservation issues facing
libraries, cultural organizations, and individuals; describe the
terminology in use; discuss products and offer buying tips on the
different ways these can be used. A list of links to other resources
will also be provided.
ALCTS thanksGaylord <http://www.gaylord.com/>for its generous support of
this webinar and Preservation Week.
Who should attend? Archival 101 is designed for individuals with little
or no experience and will also provide the more experienced user with
helpful hints.
Presenter: Peter D. Verheyen, Head of Preservation and Conservation at
Syracuse University.
After beginning as work-study in preservation under John Dean at Johns
Hopkins, Verheyen studied binding and conservation in Germany and
Switzerland to become a rare book conservator working in private
practice and research library preservation programs. He established the
conservation lab at Syracuse for the treatment of special collections
materials, and developed a high-density system for storing architectural
drawings among other things.
The Archival 101 presentation was originally developed for call center
staff at Gaylord Bros. when he worked there as Archival Product Manager.
It has since been presented regionally to varying audiences.
