Program Description

Genealogical Society of Rockland County Meeting

Event Details

We'll be watching a video from the Northeast Document Conservation Center on the preservation of old record books. How were old books made? What obstacles to conservationists face when they work with old books? What steps do archives take to make sure we can continue to have access to old records? Find out the answers to these questions with a behind the scenes look from one of the leading conservation groups in the country.

Non-members are always welcome! Some brief genealogical society business will be conducted before the presentation. Questions? Contact Joe Barbieri at the New City Library: jbarbieri@newcitylibrary.org or 845-634-4997 x123.
