DESCRIPTION:The very nature of collecting means ever-increasing demands on
  the facilities and equipment housing the collected materials and the nee
 d for ongoing and sustained planning to meet those demands. For most succ
 essful and active collecting institutions\, over time\, facilities become
  gradually more and more crowded and access to the collected material mor
 e and more challenging. Eventually the need to expand facilities becomes 
 essential to continuing the important work of collecting the valuable mat
 erials required for research\, education and cultural advancement. Whethe
 r that means a simple reorganization of space\, major renovation\, additi
 on or a new building this webinar will provide an overview of the plannin
 g work needed before engaging in the design of new or improved facilities
 .\nConsiderations to be discussed include how to translate existing stora
 ge conditions into future storage need\, how to address existing collecti
 on crowding and project collection growth and what is needed to facilitat
 e access while developing an efficient storage system. Equally important 
 is the understanding that a collection facility is not just about storage
  but also the spaces and tools needed to care for\, research and access t
 he collection materials. What is the impact of best practices in collecti
 on care\, pest management\, environment control and workflow on the organ
 ization of a collection facility? What are the spaces needed to accomplis
 h the important tasks of curators\, researchers\, programmers\, teachers 
 and collection professionals in their work with collections? All of these
  will be explored in the course of this webinar.\nTo sign up see: https:/
