Shalom, I am pleased to announce that Jacob Nadal, the Director for Preservation at the Library of Congress, will be part of this panel discussion. If you have any questions you would like to ask him about reopening *your *library, please email them to me by early next week so he will be sure to have the most up to date information from the REALM team.
Jacob Nadal is the Director for Preservation at the Library of Congress. He was appointed to the position in July 2017. Nadal manages the work of the Directorate’s five Divisions — Binding and Collections Care, Collections Management, Conservation, Reformatting, and Research and Testing — and provides leadership for the Library’s stewardship of the national collections. Before joining the Library of Congress, he was Executive Director of the Research Collections and Preservation Consortium (ReCAP) and he has served in leadership roles and developed preservation programs for the Brooklyn Historical Society, UCLA, New York Public Library, and Indiana University, where he received his Master’s Degree in Library Science. His work has involved developing large-scale cooperative programs to share and preserve research materials, organizing preservation efforts in the aftermath of natural disaster or armed conflict, and developing professional capacity through his service as an educator and work on standards development for many aspects of physical and digital preservation.
