Hello, y'all--

I'm partnering with my friends at Ga***rd Archival to do another free webinar, and I'm very excited about it. I'm going to take your questions about caring for your photos and try to give you some good advice on the best ways to make your photos last, in both library/museu/archive and home contexts. You can ask questions when you register until February 14. Plus, if you attend in person, you're registered for a drawing to win Ga***rd's cool new Rosie the archivist tote bag.

Register and ask your questions at https://gaylord-archival.zoom.us/webinar/register/1417374970950/WN_CgH4HKSDQZWM6roKjgN1pw

I hope to see you there!
