Subject: [OPC List] "Preserving Our Cultural Heritage" Inaugural Program

The <http://opc.ohionet.org/>Ohio Preservation Council and the 
<http://www.ica-artconservation.org/>Intermuseum Conservation Association 
have developed a FREE statewide preservation outreach initiative called 
"Preserving Our Cultural Heritage." Anyone who owns or is responsible for a 
collection will benefit from attending. This includes individuals as well 
as staff and volunteers of museums, libraries and archives, churches, 
government agencies, non-profit organizations, clubs, etc. This program 
will be traveling across Ohio, and will also be available on demand, all 
free of charge. Topics to be covered in every session will include:

Why should we be concerned about our collections?

What is preservation and why is it so important?

What's the difference between preservation and conservation?

What kind of supplies should I be using to preserve my collections?

How do I prepare for a possible disaster? What do I do if a disaster occurs?

What Internet and published resources are available to help me?

How do I pay for all of this?!
