Ensuring the safe use of collections by staff and readers is both
good practice and a cost-effective method of preventing damage. This
training day is aimed at library and archive staff with
responsibility for writing, implementing or promoting handling and
use policies. The day communicates the role of good handling
practices in the preservation of library and archive collections,
outlines methods of promoting good handling practices within
organisations and to users, and provides information that supports
library and archive staff with the implementation of handling
policies. It is led by Jane Pimlott and Sarah Hamlyn of the British
Library.
