West Midlands Museum Development is running a series of collections care courses with Jane Thompson-Webb, Conservation Team Leader at Birmingham Museums Trust. The sessions are designed to keep museums in touch with collections care and to give staff and volunteers the confidence and skills to carry out basic work when capacity is limited. The sessions will support emergency planning around Covid-19 in relation to collections.
Hazards in Museum Collections
This course, in two parts, will support museums to identify the ‘hidden unknowns’ in their collections and support updating emergency planning procedures.
No more than one delegate per organisation. Priority will be given to delegates from non-NPO and non-National museums in the West Midlands which are Accredited or officially Working Towards Accreditation.
The webinar will be live captioned by MyClearText, through StageText.
All participants will receive a Zoom link to the training prior to the event. This will be emailed to the address given in your booking. If you have not received an email one hour before the event please contact us. You don’t need a Zoom account, simply follow the link provided and enter the password.
Booking is via the details for part one on 26 January.
