Re: June 7 cleanup

[Lynn Jones <ljones@library.berkeley.edu>]

Hi all--

I could meet on June 25th in the morning, somewhere on the peninsula or 
East Bay, since I have to be in SF at 1:30.

The symposium did go quite well, despite some glitches in the logistics.  
I'd like to have a debriefing meeting, and in person might be better than 
online.  Has anyone got notes good enough to prepare a written summary of 
the conference for publication?

As we anticipated, having a program like this does raise many expectations
of follow through.  Regarding training sessions in disaster preparedness,
and writing collection salvage plans, this is something that the
California Preservation Interns (Pam and Charles) are in the very process
of planning, since that is the purpose of the internships, which were
funded by LSCA (Barbara Will's program).  We are putting on at least 3 and
probably 5 sessions in the late summer and early fall of this year,
focusing on Region I of the statewide networking system (the Northernmost 
counties, the northern Sierra counties and the Sacramento area). It would be
a shame not to take advantage of these to help meet the needs of those who
attended the symposium. and, no doubt Barbara would question the value of
funding duplicative programs if Bapnet requested funds to offer the same 
kind of workshops.

Comments?

Lynn
