[Nhcoll-l] Seeking conservator to evaluate and report on plant pressings collection

[Hannah Goodrick]

Greetings!


I work for Urbana University's library in Urbana, Ohio. We are applying for a grant to receive funds to preserve a collection of plant pressings ranging from the late 1800s to the 1980s. The grant requires that we consult a conservator to evaluate the preservation and treatment needs of this collection, and then report cost estimates of treatment services and materials needed for long-term preservation and storage of the collection.


Is anyone local to the Ohio area available to visit our library to evaluate and report on our collection? If you're not located locally, we are open to virtual meetings as well, if that is something you'd be willing to do. We are working on bit of a tight deadline as the grant is due on August 1, 2019.


Please respond to hannah.goodrick at franklin.edu if you are interested or have any questions.


Thank you,

Hannah Goodrick
