Enhancing Cultural Stewardship through Preservation Workshops

---

Abstract

Preservation has long been an important part of library and archival science. With the ultimate goal of ensuring the present and future use of information in a variety of formats, the field of library preservation employs many approaches and strategies at both the collection and item levels. Within a library setting, preservation activities often include routine condition assessments of analog collections, the writing and execution of robust emergency preparedness plans, extensive environmental monitor- ing, and the execution of book repairs and conservation techniques.
