  • Arrangement and Maintenance of Library Material MODULE - 3 ORGANISATION of INFORMATION SOURCES
    Arrangement and Maintenance of Library Material MODULE - 3 ORGANISATION OF INFORMATION SOURCES 11 Notes ARRANGEMENT AND MAINTENANCE OF LIBRARY MATERIAL 11.1 INTRODUCTION In this lesson, we will discuss the issues related to organization and maintenance of library material. You will be told how materials have to be arranged on library shelves and how the arrangement of books differs from the arrangement of periodicals. The library material needs to be maintained on routine basis. Maintenance of library material involves kinds of stacking, shelf arrangement, cleaning, shelving, stock verification and weeding of unwanted material. Binding of documents will also be discussed as it is essential for care and repair of documents for their long life. 11.2 OBJECTIVES After studying this lesson, you will be able to :– describe various ways to arrange books and periodicals ; identify various kinds of library stacks; explain the shelving order of books; explain arrangement of periodicals; describe the activities related to care of documents; highlight the importance of mending and binding of library books and periodicals; illustrate the role of stock verification and weeding of documents; LIBRARY AND INFORMATION SCIENCE 187 MODULE - 3 Arrangement and Maintenance of Library Material ORGANISATION OF INFORMATION SOURCES justify the need for security of library documents; and give illustrations of library displays. 11.3 MAINTENANCE WORK Notes In every library, maintenance of library material involves continuous monitoring of the stack room, displaying of new material on the display racks and arrangement of the books and periodicals on the shelves after use. Besides these, the material has to be dusted and cleaned at periodic intervals.

  • AATA Online Categories
    AATA Online Categories Methods of Examination, Analysis, and Documentation (formerly A1-A5) Contains abstracts about the process of obtaining and/or storing information using a variety of techniques, including microscopy, imaging, and dating techniques; analytical techniques that establish chemical composition or physical state; data collection and management (e.g., GIS and GPS); and computer modeling. If the abstract deals with a method of analysis or examination independent of a specific material, or if it deals with the analysis or examination of too wide a range of materials to justify inclusion in Materials and Objects: Analysis, Treatment, and Techniques, it is classified here. Crossover technology and technology transfer are also included in this section. Field Editor: Marie-Claude Corbeil, Canada Preventive Conservation and General Topics (formerly B1-B5) Abstracts in this section address the general body of knowledge relating to preventive conservation, collections care, general treatment procedures and materials, conservation practice, health and safety, policy and legislation, history, ethics, and theory. Included as well are abstracts relating to conservation management and cultural tourism. Abstracts that are potentially relevant to all conservators, regardless of specialty, or that discuss a wide variety of materials appear here. For example, a work dealing with the effects of environmental pollution on cultural property in general would be included in this section, whereas a work describing the effect of pollution on the corrosion of metals would be located in Metals and Metallurgical By-products. Field Editors: Ruth Norton, United States, and Francoise Hanssen-Bauer, Norway Archaeological Conservation (formerly C1-C5) Focuses on the documentation, analysis, and management of both underwater and terrestrial archaeological sites and assemblages for the purposes of their conservation and preservation.

  • Collections and Assets in Museums
    Foresight Research Report: Collections and Assets in Museums Document Overview The following research report is designed to provide an overview of key strategic issues relevant to the future of California communities and museums. We hope that this report will be of interest to California museum professionals working to improve service to their community and to plan for the future. From the Spring of 2012 to the Summer of 2013, a team of museum professionals participating in the California Association of Museum’s Leaders of the Future: Museum Professionals Developing Strategic Foresight training project conducted their own secondary (desktop) research on current conditions, trends, and plans for a baseline forecast that postulates the most expected futures for museums in the domain of the collections and assets. A group of members of the California Association of Museum’s Foresight Committee worked to complete this report. The authors of this report include: . Leigh Gleason, Curator of Collections, UCR/California Museum of Photography (team leader) . David Bloom, VertNet Coordinator, Museum of Vertebrate Zoology, UC Berkeley . Paul Spitzzeri, Assistant Director, Workman and Temple Family Homestead Museum . Lisa Eriksen, Principal, Lisa Eriksen Consulting While by no means comprehensive, this report is intended to define the idea of “Collections and Assets in Museums,” explore the most pressing issues and possible futures that may result from these circumstances, and create a framework upon which a baseline forecast could be presented.

There may be differences between this version and the published version. You are advised to consult the publisher’s version if you wish to cite from it. http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/162704/ Deposited on: 22 May 2018 Enlighten – Research publications by members of the University of Glasgow http://eprints.gla.ac.uk 01- Lead Article Structure and Lining: A Review By Jim Coddington and Christina Young Historically, changes in the practice of structural conservation of paintings reflect the general thrust of change in conservation practice; slow and perhaps even methodical. Only occasionally can we identify landmark moments or events that have shifted the field. The 1974 Greenwich Lining Conference is one such event in the history of the conservation of paintings. The conference’s nominal topic was lining, or the addition of a second fabric to the back of the original, a profound intervention on the work of art and thus a topic of the great importance then and now. The conference papers and discussions scrutinized then current practices in lining and the structural restoration of paintings as well as new approaches that were in development at the time. Box start Conference Proceedings were published in 2000, as: Villers C., ed. 2004. Lining Paintings: Papers from the Greenwich Conference on Comparative Lining Techniques, Archetype Publications. Box end What was manifestly clear in 1974 was that our understanding of the mechanics of paintings, their mechanisms of deterioration and other fundamental questions was limited.

  • Collections Maintenance and Care: Agents of Deterioration – Practical Exercise
    Collections Maintenance and Care: Agents of Deterioration – Practical Exercise One of the most important elements in collections care is preventing the destructive affects of the nine agents of deterioration. This effort, known commonly as preventative conservation, looks to detect, avoid, block, or mitigate any and all damage caused by these agents. In this exercise, you will be presented with three scenarios featuring one or more agents of deterioration. For each scenario, identify which agents you think are causing the damage. Then in the space provided, devise a basic plan to stop or impede the deterioration. Use the following guides to help make your decisions: Simmons, John E., Things Great and Small: Collections Management Policies, Chapter 12. Hoffman, Frank W. and Richard J. Wood, Library Collection Development Policies, Chapter 20. Scenario #1: You decide to check on the storage area where your institution’s historic furnishings are stored when not on display. While examining the silverware set, you notice some of the forks are now tarnished. You recall that maintenance staff had recently been near the storage area and used a cleaning material that you aren’t familiar with. At the same time, staff complained of an odd odor. Agents of Deterioration Direct Physical Force Pollutants and Contaminants Thieves/Vandals Light and Radiation Fire Incorrect Temperature Water Incorrect Relative Humidity Pests Plan of Action Scenario #2: A researcher comes to his appointment to access your historic letter collection and you retrieve the collection for him. At the end of the day, the collection is returned to you. Upon inspection of the letter collection, you see that several pages have creases that were not reported on the condition report in your database.
