The message below is posted on behalf of the Southeastern Library
     Network (SOLINET).

     Does your organization have mold or pest troubles?  Attend our
     upcoming SOLINET preservation workshops and learn how to tackle
     these difficult problems.  On Monday, January 29th, 1996, the
     Miami-Dade Public Library will host two half-day workshops,
     ATTACK OF THE GIANT MOLD SPORE and TO FUME OR NOT TO FUME.
     (For those who will not be able to attend on the 29th, SOLINET
     will host these same workshops on Friday, March 1st, at our
     Atlanta office -- contact our offices for further information.)

     ATTACK OF THE GIANT MOLD SPORE: Simple, Safe Techniques to
     Recover from a Mold Outbreak.  This workshop focuses on what mold
     is, why typical treatments and cleaning efforts don't work, and
     how to avoid the problem.  Several approaches to cleaning mold
     will be covered.

     TO FUME OR NOT TO FUME: Alternative Fumigation Techniques for
     Museums, Libraries and Archives.  This workshop provides a
     general introduction to fumigation, including common chemical
     fumigation techniques; impact of chemical fumigation on
     collections, pests and people; good reasons to avoid chemical
     fumigation; and a discussion of several alternatives to chemical
     fumigation.

     The workshop on mold will be held from 9 a.m. to noon, with the
     workshop on fumigation taking place from 1 to 4 p.m.  Conducting
     both workshops will be Dr. Michael Trinkley, Director of Chicora
     Foundation.

     The cost for both sessions is $85 for SOLINET members and $150
     for non-members.  The cost of a single session is $60 for SOLINET
     members and $90 for non-members.  (Any institution within Florida
     qualifies for the member rate.)  A $10 discount is offered for
     registrations received three weeks prior to the course date.
