Abstract

Many patrons (and even staff) are unaware of the proper handling of materials. According to the Heritage Health Index report, more than 820 million collection items in US cultural institutions are in urgent need of repair. In response, the American Library Association created Preservation Week to build awareness of our responsibilities to care for collections so they will be accessible to this and future generations. Preservation staff from four Oahu academic libraries will showcase how they participate in the national initiative--ranging from the simple to the complex--and give advice on how to create an event.
