The program brings together a faculty
researcher, a reference librarian, a rare books librarian, a computer resource
specialist, a preservation specialist, and UCLA’s new University
Librarian to describe and discuss projects, look at some of the criticisms
leveled against library preservation, reflect on changes in continuing

preservation in the face of digitization for ease of access.
The content of this program will interest scholars, librarians, preservationists,
and administrators.
