.....You have taken over an unmanaged collection.

       .....You have taken over a collection that was managed before, but has been neglected in recent years.

       .....There is a backlog in your collection that you just can not figure out how to get through.

       .....A huge new acquisition or donation with many objects is coming in and needs to be integrated in your existing collection.

Do any of these sound familiar to you?

Are you wondering where to start? How to get it done? If there is even a chance to get this collection into a managed state, ever?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions this workshop might be for you!

We have been working with people and collections who have been in the same situation you are in now and you can take advantage of that experience.

What will we do in this workshop?

•       An assessment of the collection you are bringing under control.

•       Look at possible outcomes and help you decide on one.

•       Help you develop a step-by-step plan to bring this collection to a managed state.

•       Provide you with resources and ideas to aide you in the process of managing your collection.

To accomplish this, we take a collaborative approach combining our years of experience with your expertise and knowledge of your collection, resources, and needs. Working closely with you we will tailor a plan to manage your collection based on your goals and keeping in mind what resources are available to you.
