Preservation Department Missions
Academic library staff collect, preserve, and provide access to library materials for present and future users. Preservation Department staff aim to further these missions by:
- Promoting long-term access to library collections through the use of treatment, rebinding, and reformatting
- Educating library staff and the public to help preserve library materials
- Partnering with subject specialists to factor in preservation concerns as selection decisions are made
- Working cooperatively with other academic preservation departments to further the collective goals of preservation as a profession
