Archival Appraisal webinar

Archival appraisal is the foundation for building collections of long-term historical value. Careful selection of material for permanent retention ensures that institutional resources support only those holdings that meet acquisition criteria and contribute to the documentary heritage. Decisions leading to what is kept have immense consequences for how histories are written, and lie at the heart of archival professional practice.



The Canadian Council of Archives webinar on Archival Appraisal will provide an introduction to appraisal strategies and the elements of an archival appraisal report.  As archivists, our decisions are informed by the principles and tools of current practice. The archival appraisal report not only records what informed the selection process, but also leaves an essential trace of what was eliminated so that future generations of researchers can judge those decisions. This webinar also compliments the content of the NAAB Bootcamp.



Instructor:  Theresa Rowat

Preserve and Protect: Archives Security webinar



Many archives and special collections libraries are experiencing operational challenges. As a result, physical security of collections in the face of theft or vandalism of collections can be a growing concern.  Materials stolen are often rare, valuable and irreplaceable.  Security is a fundamental, integral component of archival management that is in part tied to appraisal, arrangement and description, reference and preservation.  Protection of records includes: deterrents to theft; identification of missing items; environmental control; protection from fire, flood and other disasters; safe exhibition and loan procedures; and insurance for valuable items.



The Canadian Council of Archives webinar on Archival Security will provide an introduction to risk assessment, policies and procedures to minimize risks and prevent loss of records, security training for staff, security systems and equipment and crisis management.



Instructor:  Iona McCraith

Iona is the AAO Archives Advisor (since May 2013) and since 1999 has also maintained a private practice as a preservation consultant and archival materials conservator.

NAAB Bootcamp

Monetary appraisal is a key element of archival donor relations and collections development, but how is monetary appraisal done? How should your institution prepare for monetary appraisal of a fonds/collection? How is fair market value determined when archival materials are unique by definition, and few sales records are available from auctions, used book stores, or price guides?



NAAB appraisers provide a professional opinion of value for various reasons. The NAAB Bootcamp has been designed specifically for highly motivated people seeking: to learn more about monetary appraisal; to help institutions acquire donations of cultural property as gifts in kind; and to work effectively with donors. Please join us, from the comfort of your own office or boardroom, to learn the essentials of monetary appraisal . This webinar series offers a combination of theory, practical skills and tools shared by an experienced NAAB appraiser. You will also take an active part in an exercise using appraisal examples.  Background readings and a practical exercise are provided for the NAAB Bootcamp.

We are looking forward to introducing you to the world of monetary appraisal!
