From April 22-28, libraries across America will celebrate Preservation Week @ your library. Themed “Pass it on,” participating libraries will help connect library users with preservation tools; promote the importance of preservation; and will strive to enhance knowledge of preservation issues among the general public.

During the week, libraries will focus on preservation themes including: Monday, LP (vinyl) records; Tuesday, quilts; Wednesday, comic books; Thursday, slides; Friday, digital photos; and Saturday, family letters.

Two free webinars will be offered. On April 24, Taking Care: Family Textiles. On April 26, Preserving Personal Digital Photographs. Visit the ALCTS website for more information: http://www.ala.org/alcts/confevents/upcoming/webinar/pres
