SCENARIO PLANNING
FREE workshops across California - Register Now
The Californians Connecting to Collections Project (C3) is a statewide
preservation project, funded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services
and The Getty Foundation, that is providing information, education, and
training to California heritage institutions. For additional information
about the C3 Project, see the Californians Connecting to Collections
webpage, www.calpreservation.org/services/c3.html. The following workshops
are currently being offered.
Creating and Funding Preservation Projects to Enhance Collections Care
Many institutions have used grant-funded projects to enhance the level of
care they can provide for their collections, and sometimes even to jump
start their preservation programs. By the end of this one-day workshop,
participants will have outlined a preservation project proposal specific to
their institution, identified possible funding sources, and tested their
ideas with other workshop participants. Locations and dates: Long Beach -
February 15, 2013; San Luis Obispo - March 8, 2013; Tulare - March 15, 2013.
