presented in partnership with:

Missed out on the Security Solutions workshops and webinar we held in the past few months? Not to worry!
We all could use a little more protection against collections theft. Having an alarm system is not enough. In fact, in a 2009 statewide survey, it was revealed that 54% of organizations in NY do not even have reading room security protocols in place. Are you one of these organizations?
Any organization seeking to provide the best possible security for its collections must put in place coordinated policies that address threats for long term sustainable access to the public. With careful planning, awareness of warning signs, and proactive low cost security solutions, organizations can reduce the window of opportunity for theft of historical collections. Don't miss out on this important training opportunity!
Presenter: Donia Conn, Consultant for Cultural Heritage Collections
After registering, you will receive a link to view the two hour webinar - Watch at your leisure!
Webinar Fee : $10.00
This webinar is supported by a grant from the New York State Library Conservation/Preservation Discretionary Program
