This two-day program will help your cultural institution to develop
techniques for the identification of photographic materials and
processes and to implement preservation strategies for the long term
care of your materials.

 

Through lectures and hands-on demonstrations, learn how to:

*        Identify different types of photographic media 

*        Best rehouse your photographic materials for preservation

*        Plan safe storage environments, including cold storage options

*        Develop appropriate collections care and handling procedures

 

This program is intended for staff that is involved in collections care
activities or has responsibility for photograph collections, such as
archivists, librarians, curators, collections managers, stewards of
historic house museums, and records managers.

 

The cost to attend Focusing on Photographs: Identification and
Preservation is $200 for CCAHA members and $225 for non-members.  Major
funding for this program is generously provided by National Endowment
for the Humanities.
