  • Report of a Preservation Needs Assessment Executive Summary
    Report of a Preservation Needs Assessment Wrentham Historical Commission Wrentham, MA March 29, 2018 Submitted on June 8, 2018 Sean Ferguson Preservation Specialist Northeast Document Conservation Center 100 Brickstone Square Andover, MA 01810 978.470.1010 [email protected] Executive Summary Paper-based, audiovisual and photographic materials housed in the Old Fiske Library Museum of the Wrentham Historical Commission (WHC) were assessed for preservation planning purposes by Sean Ferguson, Preservation Specialist for the Northeast Document Conservation Center (NEDCC) in Wrentham, MA on March 29, 2018. Simmons College graduate student Lauren Hansen joined the assessment as an educational opportunity and observed and took part in the assessment. The assessment evaluated the buildings and environments as they relate to the preservation needs of the materials; examined current policies, storage, and handling procedures; and assessed the general condition of materials. Observations and recommendations are based on a pre-site visit questionnaire, a full-day site visit, and discussions with Chairman Greg Stahl, Vice Chairman Leo Baldyga, Treasurer and Secretary Susan Harris, Members Marion Cafferky, William Keyes, Alex Leonard, Kim Shipala, and Volunteer Cheri Leonard. Wrentham Historical Commission was established on March 27, 1967 and is responsible the stewardship and exhibition of Wrentham’s history. To these ends, WHC maintains an archives of historical materials and artifacts, manages the circa 1740’s Wampum House, and operates a plaque program to mark locations of historical significance in the Town. In 2010, WHC renovated the Old Fiske Museum, which was formally the town library, to make it suitable for the storage of historical collections. Following the renovation, the Commission relocated nearly all its historical collections into the Museum.

In 1924, the company published Bookcraft, its first training manual for the repair of books in school and public libraries. Updated regularly, the publication has provided librarians with simple cost-effective techniques for the care of their collections. When the field of preservation expanded during the 1980s, Gaylord responded with a line of archival products. In 1992, it issued its first Archival Supplies Catalog, followed by its innova- tive series of Pathfinders. Written by conservators, these illustrated guides earned a reputation for reliable information on the care and storage of paper, photographs, textiles, and books. This Guide to Collections Care continues Gaylord’s commitment to providing its users with the reliable information they need to preserve their treasures. Conservators have updated the information from our original Pathfinders and combined all five booklets into this one easy guide. We have also added product references as a convenient resource tool. ©2010, Gaylord Bros., Inc. All rights reserved. Printed in USA Gaylord Bros.

  • Carolyn M. Chesarino. an Analysis of Finding Aid Structure and Authority Control for Large Architectural Collections
    Carolyn M. Chesarino. An Analysis of Finding Aid Structure and Authority Control for Large Architectural Collections. A Master’s Paper for the M.S. in L.S degree. November, 2012. 41 pages. Advisor: Stephanie W. Haas This study discusses best practices in describing architectural records in special collections repositories through encoded finding aids. It argues that metadata elements within these finding aids could serve as more effective access points if end users were more easily able to develop their own ways of highlighting relationships which exist within and across collections. Based on the information gathered from semi-structured interviews, this paper reports how other archivists developed institutional standards with which to catalog and process their architectural collections. Finally, this paper provides examples of what could be achieved in the realm of data visualization in an attempt to inspire repositories to make it easier for end users to extract the metadata that archivists and librarians spend so much time collecting.
