Dear Colleagues, In case you are attending ALA in Chicago, please consider attending the Forum of the Preservation and Reformatting Section of ALCTS: Preservation projects in the Community: Performing Arts Readiness and Preservation in Action Please come and hear about two exciting projects that are taking preservation expertise in new directions. Sunday, June 25, 4:30-5:30 pm, McCormick Place W194b Tom Clareson, Project Director for the Performing Arts Readiness project will talk about upcoming disaster preparedness networking grants available through the PAR initiative as well as workshops, webinars and other opportunities for cultural heritage and performing arts organizations to work together. Katie Risseeuw, head of Preservation at Northwestern University, will speak on Preservation in Action. Preservation in Action (PiA) is an outreach event held during ALA's Annual conference. Currently in its second year, the goal of PiA is increased awareness of preservation practices for both conference attendees and local cultural institutions, especially in organizations holding materials of historically underrepresented communities. This year's project will take place at the Rebuild Foundation's Stony Island Arts Bank in Chicago, IL, where volunteers will be rehousing a collection of ephemera, photos, newspapers and objects. The forum presentation will give an overview of the Stony Island Arts Bank collections, project planning and outcomes of the day. -- Kristen Kern Professor Fine and Performing Arts Librarian Portland State Library 503-725-5218 [log in to unmask] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mail submissions to [log in to unmask] For information about joining ARLIS/NA see: http://www.arlisna.org/membership/join-arlisna Send administrative matters (file requests, subscription requests, etc) to [log in to unmask] ARLIS-L Archives and subscription maintenance: http://lsv.arlisna.org Questions may be addressed to list owner (Judy Dyki) at: [log in to unmask] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
