Subject: Workshops and webinars on sustainable preservation practices
The Image Permanence Institute, Rochester Institute of Technology, received an Education and Training grant from NEH to provide a series of no-cost regional workshops and webinars for collections care and facilities staff in cultural institutions. Workshops will be presented in five locations between September 2010 and April 2011 by two nationally known experts in preservation and energy management-James Reilly, Director of IPI, and Peter Herzog of Herzog/Wheeler and Associates. Nine follow up webinars will focus on the practical application of sustainable preservation practices in collecting institutions. All presentations are designed to enable collections care and facilities staff in cultural institutions to avoid risks to collections while they support sustainability efforts and pursue opportunities for energy cost reduction.
