conditions, including low- and no-cost improvements. The risk of pests and
mold in libraries will also be addressed.

Learning outcomes:

Upon completion of this series, attendees will:

1. Value preservation as a formal library function, and how it reflects and
supports the institutional mission

2. Appreciate the primary role of preventive care, including good storage
conditions, in extending the useful life of collections; and

3. Understand some of the challenges in preserving digital content and what
the implications are for the future of scholarship.

Who should attend? Those who work in smaller to medium sized libraries,
archives and historical societies.

Presenter: Julie Mosbo has been the William and Susan Ouren Preservation
Librarian at Texas A&M University Libraries since October 2013. Prior to
that she was Preservation Librarian at Southern Illinois University at
Carbondale. Since 2011, she has also been an integral part of ACLTS'
