dc.description.abstract | The Library Collections Conservation Discussion Group (LCCDG) co-chairs presented two topics for discussion at the AIC Providence meeting: (1) conservation’s role in off-site storage workflows; and (2) conservation’s role in digitization workflows. Discussion Topic 1: Many research libraries have recently secured or are currently constructing off-site storage buildings to house low-use and special library materials. Conservation unit staff are often involved in building design considerations, collection development decision-making, and preparation and transfer of materials to these new storage areas. Discussion Topic 2: The introduction of digitization projects has also changed the nature of the work conservators perform. We have become increasingly involved in selecting materials, providing conservation treatment before and after scanning, educating digitization staff, and preserving newly created digital collections. Because the discussion on topic 1 was lengthy, sufficient time was not available to address topic 2. Therefore, topic 2 will be offered for discussion at a subsequent LCCDG meeting. | |
