Preserving Paper event, Albany, NY, 22 July

Sorry for the short notice, but if you're going to be in Albany, New York early tomorrow evening and are interested in learning about the basics of caring for paper-based documents, photographic prints, maps, and other materials, you might want to make your way to the main branch of the Albany Public Library at 6:00 PM. Michelle Phillips, a conservator of paper and photographic materials with the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation (OPRHP), will explain how you can ensure that your paper-based treasures will withstand the ravages of time. All of OPRHP's conservators are first-rate, and this event should be great

(A big tip o' the hat to Daniel Van Riper, who let me know about this event and supplied the image above.)
