If your institution has had a preservation planning survey and is ready 
to take the next step, if it has not yet developed a systematic preservation 
program, if it needs to make the current program more effective, or if you feel 
the need for additional preservation education, NEDCC has designed a program 
just for you.  The cycle of 
workshops is designed to provide systematic preservation training to staff of 
small to mid-sized museums, historical organizations, archives, libraries, and 
records repositories.  As a series, 
the workshops will provide the information needed to design, implement, and 
maintain an effective preservation program for documents, books, photographs, 
and other paper-based materials.

The program is designed for the full-time professional with part-time 
preservation responsibilities.  
Institutions may be small to mid-sized archives, museums, historical 
organizations, records repositories, or public, academic, or special libraries 
with paper-based materials of enduring value for research.<SPAN 
style="mso-spacerun: yes">  The series is not designed to address 
the specific needs of general circulating collections or large academic research 
libraries.
