Policies and procedures are essential tools for managing and caring for collections, but getting started can feel overwhelming. This webinar provides a practical introduction to the core documents collecting institutions need, including collection management policies and day-to-day procedures that support consistent decision-making. Participants will learn what these documents typically include, how they function in real-world settings, and how to approach drafting them in manageable steps. The session focuses on clear, usable language and realistic approaches that reflect the capacity of small to mid-sized institutions. By the end of the webinar, participants will have a better understanding of where to begin and how to move forward with developing or refining policies and procedures at their own organization.
