Meeting on Oregon preservation planning

Connecting-to-Collections (C2C)
Free focus groups in Eugene and Portland
July 15-16, 2010

Worried about Preserving Your Heritage Collection? You Can Make a
Difference!

Please attend one of two free meetings being held in Eugene and
Portland on July 15, 2010 and July 16, 2010 respectively.  We need
your input to make a successful plan. The dates of additional fall
season meetings in Pendleton, Medford, and Bend will be announced as
they are finalized.

By attending one of these meetings you can help the heritage
community--archives, libraries, and museums--plan a better future
for Oregon's heritage collections.  A grant from the federal
Institute for Museums and Library Services (IMLS) to the Oregon
Museum Association on behalf of archive, library, and museum
partners throughout Oregon is making it possible for us to take
stock of our preservation, training, and disaster preparedness
needs.  From this a statewide preservation plan to address those
needs will be developed.  The plan is a necessary first step to
secure funding for implementation.

Refreshments will be provided.  Please let us know you are coming so
that we can plan adequate seating and refreshments by emailing Ruth
Metz <ruthmetz<-at->spiretech<.>com>.  You may also email your questions to
Ruth Metz.
