We have a number of developments planned for 2007, designed to help you in 
the care and management of your collections.

New and forthcoming resources include:

* Handling and Use of Collections section – including advice on managing and 
using handling collections, together with case studies

* New publications on storage and environmental monitoring for library and 
archive collections, produced jointly by MDA and the National Preservation 
Office

And look out for new services including:

* Online shop – due to be launched on the Collections Link website during 
2007, the shop will initially sell MDA goods and services, with a wider range of 
products becoming available during the year.

* National training database – find information about short training courses 
and events across a range of collections management disciplines.

So visit Collections Link for yourself and let us know what you think using the 
online feedback form to ensure that Collections Link includes all the 
information you need in the coming year.
