Description

While this resource focuses on preservation awareness in libraries, it provides tips and advice that are practical for any collecting institution. Explains how to create, implement, and evaluate formal and informal preservation education programs in school, public, academic, and special collections. Chapters are written by contributors from a wide range of positions in librarianship and academia. Building on the assumption that most misuse is caused by a misunderstanding or a lack of understanding, much attention is given to reaching all types of patrons and changing attitudes. Use this resource to: learn of ways institutions are educating visitors and patrons about the preservation needs of their collections; design a successful preservation education program at your institution; see promotional materials in use around the country. xv, 368 p. : ill. ; 24 cm.
