Date: Thursday, April 25, 2019

All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11 AM Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1 PM Central, and 2 PM Eastern time.

This free webinar is sponsored by the PARS Preservation Outreach Committee.

Description: This presentation highlights basic archival care for common
family treasures such as photo albums, loose photographs, Bibles, clocks,
jewelry, and more. Dozens of photos illustrate proper storage practices,
and damage resulting from poor storage and common hazards such as
silverfish, mold, and acid migration. Discover what to save when you
inherit a houseful of “treasures,” how and where to store your keepsakes,
and how to set up a home archive so you can easily access items for
research and sharing.

Learning outcomes:

• Understanding the value of preserving family history

• Archives 101: What Do I Do With All This Stuff?

• Preservation tips for popular family heirlooms

• Damage Control: how to choose suitable home storage

• How to identify pests and other risks

• Best practices for home digitization
