This two-day program will focus on the fundamentals of identifying and
caring for photographic collections.  Using lecture and hands-on
demonstrations, topics will be intertwined over the course of the
program to give participants a holistic view of identifying photographic
materials, housing and caring for these collections, developing
appropriate handling and display procedures, and establishing safe
storage environments.

 

Topics covered include:

*             Identification and care of cased photographs and 19th and
20th century prints

*             Handling and labeling photographic materials

*             Housing solutions for photographic collections

*             Preservation considerations for photographic collections

*             Identification of negatives, color prints, and digital
prints

*             Environmental guidelines for photographs

*             Cold storage for photograph collections

         

The program is intended for collections care staff responsible for
photographic collections, such as librarians, archivists, curators,
collections managers, stewards of historic house museums, and records.
