We don’t
have any specific things in mind. We wanted to be pretty general, but some
examples I can think of right off would be mold treatment with chemicals that
are now considered dangerous, or not filming anymore because the camera broke
or that kind of thing. And we are interested in hearing from archives as well.
I hope this
helps!

question from Policy Planning and Research Committee
Brian, do you have a list of the
activities in which you're interested? And do you want to hear only from
libraries?

question from Policy Planning and Research Committee
One of the charges given
to the PARS Policy Planning and Research Committee was to identify changes
in preservation
practices. So, if you could please answer the following question
regarding your institution the committee would be most appreciative.
Please send your replies to brian_baird@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. I will
compile the data and our committee will issue a report. All information
will be kept confidential.
Please answer the question by March 1, 2005.
Please identify preservation practices (including conservation
reformatting, environmental control, disaster planning, etc.) that have not
been used at your institution since 1995. Please also indicate the
reason(s) that this practice is no longer used:
--Obsolete
--Harmful to people or materials
--No longer of concern
--Lack of expertise
--Lack of funds
--Lack of staff
--Other
Thanks!
Brian Baird
Chair, Policy Planning and Research Committee
