Are you confident that you know the most vulnerable areas of your collection and that your emergency plan is up to date?

Conservator Jane Thompson-Webb will lead this online training day, split into two sessions, which will cover;

  • risk assessing collections
  • identification of vulnerable collection areas
  • using data to support IPM and environmental monitoring

Participants will be guided on action planning to support their organisation’s emergency plan.
