Many of us have aging items that we want to protect and pass along to future generations, but we might not know best how to keep them safe. Luckily, professionals can help.

Join Robin Goodman of the Gund Gallery and Elizabeth Williams-Clymer of Chalmers Library’s Special Collections and Archives Department as they not only discuss their work and how museums, libraries, and archives maintain their collections but also suggest how people can take care of historical items and family heirlooms on their own.

Audience members are welcome to bring in items (unless those items are too fragile to travel) and ask for suggestions about how they should take care of them. We hope to see you there.
