In honor of Preservation Week, we want to remind our readers that anyone can sign up for a free webinar Taking Care: Family Textiles sponsored by the Association for Library Collections and Technical Services (ALCTS) group. The webinar will discuss how to care for the various types of textiles found in family collections including clothing, flags and furniture coverings and framed textiles. The session will cover how to safely store and display textiles and how to determine when the services of a professional conservator are needed.
The webinar begins at 2 pm EDT tomorrow. It's a good idea to register TODAY - just in case there are some glitches in using your computer. ALCTS is a Division of the American Library Association.
These are the Technical Requirements given for participating in the free webinar:
- Computer with Internet access (high-speed connection is best) and media player software. Headphones recommended.
- If you receive a Codec error when playing the recorded file with Windows Media Player, download the gotowebinar codec file from: https://www1.gotomeeting.com/codec?Portal=www.gotomeeting.com The Codec acts as a patch that allows the recording, which is created with a higher version of Media Player, to play in version 7.
- For more information on playing the recording, see the FAQ.
