As we head into our summer Planning & Assessment application round and prepare for another class of awardees, we decided to take a step back and catch up with the Fort Ticonderoga Association, a DHPSNY alum who received a Preservation Survey from us in 2018. We spoke with Miranda Peters, Fort Ticonderoga's Director of Collections. Chatting with Miranda, we learned about the institution’s aspirational new mission, it’s expansive collections, and more.

In our final webinar of the season, AV Collections: Planning a Reformatting Project, David Neary of the Whitney Museum of American Art’s Media Preservation Initiative discussed moving image and audio assets in the collection—providing an introduction to the different kinds of AV media that are commonly found and regularly ignored, how to prepare for their digitization, and some basic and not so basic methods for digitization. He also discussed options for outsourcing to vendors and how to decide which one is best for your archive and collection.
