Summer School: How to Handle (Almost) Everything

CLHO's third Summer School session answers important collections questions. 

As stewards of our historic resources and cultural heritage materials, we are responsible for the long-term preservation of our collections materials. But how to handle different types or materials can be confusing.

• Unsure about when to wear gloves? 
• How to store oversized textiles? 
• The best way to shelve and display bound volumes? 
• How to display historic clothing?
  

Using a relaxed and straightforward approach Bexx Caswell-Olson and Camille Myers Breeze will guide you through proper care and handling techniques for a wide variety of collections materials including documents, works of art on paper, photographs, bound volumes, historic clothing, quilts, and other textiles.  

Participants:

• Bexx Caswell-Olson, Directory of Book Conservation Northeast Document Conservation Center
  
• Camille Myers Breeze, Director & Chief Conservator, Museum Textile Services
