About the Program
Architectural Records Symposium:
Managing and Preserving Design
Records
Architectural records are
vital documentation of our built environment and provide insight into social
and economic trends throughout history. However, collecting, managing,
preserving, and providing access to these records can often feel like a
monumental task for those charged with their care. Speakers at this symposium
will address the challenges involved in managing architectural records
collections, on both theoretical and practical levels, through case studies,
lectures, and demonstrations. Participants will learn about the significance
of architectural records; the array of materials and methods used to create
them, from the earliest processes to those in use today; collecting policies;
appraisal; intellectual control; preventive and remedial preservation measures;
innovations in conservation treatment; methods of access; reformatting; and
management of electronic files; as well as have opportunities to engage in
discussions with fellow participants who are managing similar collections.
This symposium is
intended for archivists, librarians, curators, historic preservation officers,
records managers, historians, and architects who are involved in collecting,
preserving, and providing access to architectural, landscape, and historic
preservation records in cultural institutions and architectural firms.
