Preservation Program at ALA

Although this release was submitted to the distlist several weeks ago,
there have been some changes since... This release also lists the
location of the meeting which was not available in the previous listing.

  The Association for Library Collections & Technical Services (ALCTS)
  and the Preservation of Library Materials Section (PLMS) would like to
  announce:

  "TAKING CHARGE: MANAGING PRESERVATION PROJECTS" -- A Program sponsored
  by ALCTS/PLMS to be presented at the ALA 1993 Annual Conference in New
  Orleans, Louisiana on Monday, June 28, 1993 from 2pm to 5:30pm at the
  Hotel Inter-Continental, Vieux Carre/Room A.

  TAKING CHARGE is a program for those individuals or institutions with
  little or no project experience who are interested in organizing and
  implementing a preservation project.  The program is concerned with
  the broad administrative concerns of implementing a project, rather
  than technical aspects of preservation.  Speakers will address such
  topics as planning and cost modeling, documentation and
  accountability, and coping with the impact projects may have on staff
  and existing preservation programs.  In addition, case studies will be
  presented on projects as carried out at several different
  institutions.

  Question and answer opportunities will be provided during the program.
  Handouts, including a bibliography of literature available on the
  topics of project management and preservation projects, will be
  distributed.

  Introductions by Cindy Clark, University of California, Irvine.
  Keynote Speaker: Martha Hanson, Syracuse University.  Speakers: Carol
  Mandel, Columbia University; Charlotte Brown, UCLA; Robin Wagner,
  Franklin & Marshall College; Marcia Watt, Emory University; Eugene
  Wiemers, Northwestern University; Nancy Elkington, Research Libraries
  Group; Barbara Berger, Cornell University; Janet Gertz, Columbia
  University; Carla Montori, University of Michigan.

Thanks,
Lee Dirks
