Archives 101: Demystifying Archival & Manuscript Collections
Thursday, November 09, 2023, 2-3:30pm ET
Preparing archival materials for use is the second task people caring for special collections in a library should do. The first is accessioning the collection.
But how does one process an archival collection? Is there a difference between processing papers, photographs, and born digital materials? In this 90-minute webinar, three Florida-based archivists will share the beginning steps in the procedures of preserving
documents and photographs and then organizing materials with respect to their provenance and original order, to protect their context and to achieve physical or intellectual control over the materials. We encourage attendees to bring their questions about
their own collections for the Q&A portion of the webinar.
