The Upper Midwest Conservation Association presents two workshops on
two consecutive days at five different venues.  The first day, "Care
of Library and Archival Materials," will cover the basic causes of
deterioration of library and archival materials and how to prevent
and retard deterioration. Emphasis will be on low-cost measures
available to most institutions.  The second day, "Preservation
Planning for Museums, Historical Societies, Libraries, and
Archives," we will discuss the concept and benefits of planning for
the preservation of collections, emphasizing self-study and
implementation.  For a brochure, please contact:
