About the Conference
Proper planning promotes good preservation. But what does proper planning mean?
Among the questions to be addressed:
Assess
- How is the need for preservation determined?
- How does an institution decide on appropriate preservation actions?
Prioritize
- How are resources allocated to meet the preservation needs?
- How can an institution meet both preservation and access objectives?
- How can the prioritization be flexible and adapt to shifting customer demands and resources? What are the benefits and costs?
Manage
- Are there minimum standards (technical, professional, and procedural)?
- What role do partnerships play in decision-making for effective preservation action?
- How can success be determined in preserving records?
- What are appropriate performance metrics?
Information on specifics of the conference will become available in the coming weeks. Please check this conference web page for updates on dates, times, location, registration fees, and other topics.
