You’ve been searching to find your family history. Now learn to extend the life of what you have.
Do you have a yellowing photograph? Snow on your videotape? Curling or browning paper? Loose audiocassettes? Scratched disks? Delicate birth certificates? Moldy books?
Learn to assess the damages and risks to the prints, movies, the documents of life. No more scotch-taping or wrapping in newspaper, no packing in crowded shoeboxes, or storing in the attic. You'll find out how to safely remove a book from the shelf or rescue a wet book. You'll hear what to do with a drop-front box, when to encapsulate, rewind, or reformat.
Join staff from the Pratt's Special Collections Department to keep your family treasures close.
