[Parr, Bonnie]

The CARLI Preservation Committee is pleased to present a webinar on "Collection Assessment for Preservation Purposes."  This webinar will be held on Tuesday, October 8, 2013 from 1:30 - 2:45 pm.

The webinar will have three panelists who will share information on different assessment models that libraries with various levels of expertise and resources may use to assess their preservation needs in preparation for preservation projects and/or grant applications to fund those projects.

Lorraine Olley, Library Director at the University of Saint Mary of the Lake, will describe a self-assessment project based on an update of the ARL Preservation Self-Study model.  Cason Snow will speak on an in-house process used by Northern Illinois University. Ross Griffiths, Director of Heritage and Legacy Collections at Illinois State University, will introduce an assessment method used at his library.  There will be time at the end of the presentations for questions from attendees.

This is an opportunity to learn about real-world experiences in collection assessment.  There's no cost to attend this webinar.
