"Applying risk management to collection care"
Preservation Advisory Centre training day
British Library Centre for Conservation

United Kingdom
11 October 2012

Current best practice for cultural collections management advocates
a risk management approach to collection care (PAS 197:2009). Risk
management is a powerful tool for identifying and prioritising
activities. It provides objective evidence which can be used to
raise the profile of issues and justify resource allocation. Above
all, it is a widely used methodology which makes it easy to
communicate findings.

This one-day workshop introduces the principles of risk management
and guides you through the process of applying a risk management
framework to collection care.

The workshop is led by Susanna Hillhouse, a consultant with
extensive experience of collections management planning and
training. It is designed for people working with library and archive
collections who have not previously undertaken a collection care
risk assessment.

Cost: UKP100 + VAT (GBP)
