This is shaping up to be a busy year for DHPSNY, and we're ready to get back on the road in March to present our next series of workshops! Archives Specialist Amelia Parks will lead the daylong presentation Essential Policies and Procedures for Cultural Institutions at three locations in New York City, Binghamton, and Syracuse beginning March 7. You can read more and register below or at our workshops page.
Our latest workshop will provide an overview of policy and planning documents that are essential for collections care, such as collections management policies, handling guidelines, and maintenance policies. Participants will learn the critical components of these documents and tangible examples will be given of how to adapt them to different institutions. Policy development, approval, and implementation responsibilities of staff, volunteers, and board will be discussed.
If you're in the area, join at one of these dates!
