Preserving Heritage Collections is the next step in collections care
after our free Agents of Deterioration course. Conservator Gretchen
Anderson will provide the strategy necessary to use knowledge of the
Agents of Deterioration to preserve collections. Using the Canadian
Conservation Institute’s Framework for Preservation we will develop
strategies that we can actually implement with our available resources.
We will also learn when a solution is beyond our ability and then it is
time to call in a subject matter or skilled specialist. Discover what
resources are available to help us with preservation including knowledge
and funding. Learn how to weave more sustainable practices into our
daily and long-term strategies. If you are not already familiar with
preservation principles you should take this course before taking any
other collection care subject. These principles are also applied in
Collection Management and Facilities Management courses ranging from
Integrated Pest Management to Keeping Historic Houses & Museums Clean to
Emergency Preparedness and Assessing Risk to Cultural Property.
