[SOA] Ohio Preservation Council

[Ed Vermue]

Dear Colleague:



This letter is your invitation to continue supporting preservation efforts
for Ohio’s documentary and cultural heritage by joining or renewing your
membership in the Ohio Preservation Council (OPC) for the 2013 calendar
year.  The Ohio Preservation Council serves as a coalition of
preservationists, conservators, librarians, archivists, curators, records
managers, the institutions they represent, and other concerned citizens who
recognize the serious threat to documentary heritage.  The Council's
mission is to provide a network for preservation education and to support
preservation activities within the state of Ohio.



The OPC offers a number of opportunities for members to become involved
with preservation efforts statewide:



•             Preservation training and instruction

•             Participation in specialized projects and symposia

•             Council standing committees

•             Networking opportunities with colleagues at other Ohio
institutions



The OPC is an indispensable resource for learning and networking with other
Ohio professionals whose dedication, experience and support cannot be
undervalued.  Membership meetings are held on the third Thursday of March,
May, September and November.  Meetings often include “behind the scenes”
tours of cultural facilities complete with demonstrations of specialized
skills by members and guests.  All members are invited to attend meetings.  See
the OPC website for meeting locations and times at
http://opc.ohionet.orgfor a list of member institutions, and
information regarding past and
upcoming events.



Membership in the OPC runs from January to December of the calendar
year.  Please
consider helping us meet preservation needs in Ohio by visiting:
http://opc.ohionet.org/opcjoomla/membership/how-to-join to initiate your
membership.  New members should click on the link that says “Join OPC as a
new member” to create a profile for themselves or their institution.
Alternatively,
an invoice can be e-mailed to you.



Checks should be made payable to “Ohio Preservation Council” and mailed to:
