Event Description
Do you have a wonderful painting given by a donor? An 18th century map that was just unearthed in storage? Some pieces from your historic library building? Or other non-book materials that you have become responsible for? If so, A Day for Special Collections is for you. Join us at the Cleveland Heights/University Heights Public Library where Leslie Cade, Interim Director of Library and Archives at the Cleveland Museum of Art, will discuss the retention, cataloging and accessibility issues associated with various types of non-book materials. Amy Crist, Associate Book/Paper Conservator at the Cleveland Museum of Art, will then talk about the care, handling, display and storage of such items with an emphasis on paper documents and memorabilia.
In the afternoon, the program will take a field trip to the Western Reserve Historical Society, where Ann Sindelar, Reference Supervisor in the Research Library, will provide tips on the preservation of local history and information on the status of current digital projects. Participants will receive a tour of the Western Reserve Historical Society’s collections and learn more about resources dedicated to researching local history. Come join us for this interesting and informative day.
