  • 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.

  • Analog, the Sequel: an Analysis of Current Film Archiving Practice and Hesitance to Embrace Digital Preservation by Suzanna Conrad
    ANALOG, THE SEQUEL: AN ANALYSIS OF CURRENT FILM ARCHIVING PRACTICE AND HESITANCE TO EMBRACE DIGITAL PRESERVATION BY SUZANNA CONRAD ABSTRACT: Film archives preserve materials of significant cultural heritage. While current practice helps ensure 35mm film will last for at least one hundred years, digi- tal technology is creating new challenges for the traditional means of preservation. Digitally produced films can be preserved via film stock; however, digital ancillary materials and assets in many cases cannot be preserved using traditional analog means. Strategy and action for preserving this content needs to be addressed before further content is lost. To understand the current perspective of the film archives, especially in regards to the film industry’s marked hesitation to embrace digital preservation, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ paper “The Digital Dilemma: Strategic Issues in Archiving and Accessing Digital Motion Picture Materials” was closely evaluated. To supplement this analysis, an interview was conducted with the collections curator at the Academy Film Archive, who explained the archives’ current approach to curation and its hesitation to move to digital technologies for preservation. Introduction Moving images are a vital part of our cultural heritage. The music, film, and broadcasting industries, as well as academic and cultural institutions, have amassed a “legacy of primary source materials” of immense value. These sources make the last one hundred years understandable as an era of the “media of the modernity.”1 Motion pictures and films were established as vital archival records as early as the 1930s with the National Archives Act, which included motion pictures in the definition of “objects of archival interest.”2 As cultural artifacts, moving images deserve archival care and preservation.3 However, the art of preserving moving images and film can at times be daunting.

  • Contributions of Historic Preservation to QUALITY of LIFE of FLORIDIANS
    Contributions of Historic Preservation TO QUALITY OF LIFE OF FLORIDIANS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Center for Governmental Responsibility, University of Florida Levin College of Law • Department of Urban and Regional Planning, UF College of Design, Construction and Planning • Center for Tourism Research and Development, UF College of Health and Human Performance Department of Museum Studies, UF College of Fine Arts • Florida Trust for Historic Preservation In the preamble to the National Historic Preservation Act Congress found that the preservation of America’s heritage “is in the public interest so that its vital legacy of cultural, educational, aesthetic, inspirational, economic and energy benefits will be maintained and enriched for future generations of Americans.” In other words, in 1966, Congress was convinced that the American public’s “quality of life” would improve as an indigenous part of the preser- vation of its historic towns and neighborhoods. Four decades later, National Trust for Historic Preservation President Richard Moe opened the annual conference with remarks that re-confirmed that organization’s concern for “quality of life” and how preservation, if properly integrated, can better our communities. Recently, Donovan Rypkema, one of the nation’s foremost preservation planners made the observation about newly revitalized historic areas that not long ago were nearly dead: “I do not know of a single sustained success story in downtown revitalization anywhere in the US where restoration (preservation) was not a key component of the effort. That doesn’t mean it isn’t theoretically possible to have downtown revitalization but no restoration, but I don’t know about it, I haven’t read about it, I haven’t seen it.” Indeed, the well-being and potential for the recycling of older communities is an increasing concern in states such as Florida in all aspects of urban and regional planning.

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.

  • NORTHEAST HISTORIC FILM Jbn F7 1993 [, / / I I PO BOX 900, MAIN ST, BUCKSPORT, ME 04416-0900 1
    LIBRARY OF COiiGRESS , NORTHEAST HISTORIC FILM JbN F7 1993 [, / / I I PO BOX 900, MAIN ST, BUCKSPORT, ME 04416-0900 1 Northeast Historic Film would like to bring to the National Film Preservation Board study on the current state of film preservation a statement concerning the significance, and the imperilled state, of the nontheatrical film record. This archives was established to care for regional films. It is an uphill, almost hopeless, battle. "Local history" and "amateur" weigh heavily in some circles as pejorative. Funding support for regional film preservation is virtually nonexistent. We believe that local and regional moving images record and interpret the real issues and real lives of the passing century. From these moving images and sound posterity will understand the era--its life and its art. James Agee wrote, "since intimate specification is even less dispensable to most good art than generalization, I believe that most of the best films, like most of the best of any other art, are and would always have to be developed locally, and primarily for local audiences." (The Nation. 24 Nov 1945). While Agee's is an extreme statement, we'll take the opportunity to stand up for these comers of the national film preservation picture: 1. There are few advocates when the production and exhibition canon is left behind. For example, so-called "our town pictures." often made by itinerant exhibitors, have next to no literature legitimizing the genre. Their valuable look into our nation's democratization of film language and technique, as well as community life, awaits discovery and preservation.
