***Save the Date! ARCS Webinar September 30th at 2:00 p.m. ET: Boxes, Tubes
& Pallets, Oh My! Choosing and Using Safe Materials for Collection
Housing***
The 2019 Institute for Museum and Library Services Heritage Health
Information survey documented that the conditions in storage are critical
to the health of collection items held in trust by institutions across the
nation. This webinar will focus on choosing appropriate materials for
storage that won’t inadvertently damage your collections over time. Making
wise decisions about products and how they are used in rehousing projects
will stretch your budget to get the most preservation bang for your buck.

[MCN-L] Fostering Communities of Practice (FCoP) Project Releases Suite of Project Documentation

[Hannah Ballard]

Dear friends and colleagues,



The Fostering Communities of Practice (FCoP)
 project is pleased to
announce the publication of resources and documentation related to software
preservation and emulation activities undertaken by the FCoP cohort over
the past 2 years.



Comprised of 6 organizations, the cohort created a wide variety of
documents, from software emulation procedure checklists to oral
history-driven "software stories" to recommendations for expanding software
preservation communities of practice to software use language in deeds of
gift. And that's just a sampling — there are many more kinds of documents
now available on the Software Preservation Network (SPN) website, enough
for both the beginning software preservation practitioner and the
experienced software preservation expert.



Additionally, the FCoP project research fellow, Dr. Amelia Acker, has
created a suite of preservation and emulation learning modules for library
and archives educators. These resources are available on the site along
with a pre-print of a research paper that develops the findings based on
Acker's observations of three FCoP cohort sites.



The FCoP project cohort and staff invite you to browse the resources to
learn more.



We look forward to your feedback and insights. If you have questions or
would like more information please contact Jessica Meyerson at <
jess...@educopia.org >.



Best wishes,

Hannah
