Connecting to Collections Webinars Recordings Available

Staff of small to mid-sized museums, libraries and archives, who seek to enhance collections care at their institutions, are the target audience for six free webinars presented this fall. Recordings of the first five and login information for the final December 9th session are accessible at http://learningtimesevents.org/c2c/ The Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), in partnership with Heritage Preservation and the American Association for State and Local History (AASLH), presented the series based on the national initiative Connecting to Collections: A Call to Action. Using the content of the Connecting to Collections Bookshelf, Forums, and Workshops, these highly interactive webinars connect you with experts and colleagues to discuss issues of common concern. The series has a dual focus: four webinars help you learn how to conduct outreach to the media, the public, and funders on behalf of collections, and two webinars help you derive maximum benefit from the Connecting to Collections Bookshelf. The Library Commission has the Connecting to Collections Bookshelf, which is available for loan to Nebraska library, museum and archive staff. Bookshelf list and borrowing information
