Preserving and Making Accessible Archival Records

The Archivist needs to preserve historical records but also make them accessible. Sometimes these two goals seem at odds. This educational event will demonstrate how one institution, The New York State Archives, both preserves and makes accessible the historical records of New York State Government. Archives staff will give an overview of conservation methods, security procedures, research room rules, and other methods used to both preserve and make accessible historical records.

A tour of the Archives and the New York State Museum will follow.
