In recognition of Preservation Week (April 24–30, 2011), the Library offers a series of presentations aimed at helping community members save and store family photos for posterity.

On April 16, Special Collections Librarian Lucinda Adams leads a presentation on Caring for Print Photographs. On April 30, Digital Projects Manager Jordan Fields leads a presentation on Preserving Digital Images.

These presentations are a joint project of the Library’s Missouri Valley Special Collections and Information Technology Services.

Preservation Week is coordinated by the American Library Association.
