SI 651: Physical Treatment Processes for Preservation Administrators

The Preservation of Information specialization educates preservation administrators working with analog and digital materials. One of the hallmarks of our program is that it bridges analog and digital media. Having a real understanding of physical media, particularly paper-based objects, Is essential for our students who want to be employed as preservation administrators. Students need to understand conservators and make intelligent decisions based on conservators' treatment options that balance value of the object, cost, and time. They also need to understand the impact of digitization on physical objects. This course provides the bridge between analog and digital and gives students a better and deeper understanding of paper-based objects.
