NCPC Preservation of Scrapbooks

April 21, 2017

High Point Museum–High Point, NC

Workshop will take place from 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.

This workshop is designed for individuals who are interested in the preservation and care of scrapbooks. Whether you oversee the care and handling of scrapbooks or work directly with them at your institution, this workshop will address access, conservation, reformatting, and description as it relates to these unique books. Attendees are welcome to bring one scrapbook from their collection to review with the instructors and attendees. This interactive session will be used to discuss “real world” issues and apply the lessons learned during the day.

Refreshments and a box lunch are included in your registration fee.
