This workshop will focus on identifying home methods of preservation that threaten the life of collections as well as provide professional methods the repositories use to ensure preservation and connect with methods used for centuries.

The workshop will be led by Samuel W Black, the director of the History Center’s African American Program. He will be joined by attorney and genealogist Martha R. Conley and Aaisha Haykal, the manager of archival services at the College of Charleston’s Avery Research Center for African American History and Culture.
