In this 90-minute webinar, we'll explore the importance of the first 24-28 hours in responding to water emergencies that impact works on paper, including the benefits and implications of a variety of responses (keeping objects wet, air drying, freezing, etc.). Presenters will share real-life examples of water emergencies, responses taken, lessons learned, and tips for next steps beyond the 24-48 hour response period. This webinar will focus on paper (archival collections, books, photographs, but NOT paintings, drawings, etc.)
Outcomes:After participating in this webinar, attendees will be better able to:
-
- Plan for a variety of water emergencies
- Respond quickly and strategically in caring for works on paper in the first 24-48 hours after the emergency
- Ensure that post-emergency actions are conducted with the best care of the particular objects in mind
- Use emergency response actions as important and meaningful steps toward subsequent and successful conservation efforts
