The preservation needs assessment process encompasses a general evaluation of the institution's preservation needs for their collections and includes: environment (temperature, relative humidity, pollution, and light), housekeeping, pest control, fire protection, security, and disaster preparedness; collection storage, handling, exhibition, and treatment; and preservation planning. The site visit consists of a review of the site conducted by a CCAHA preservation expert, an examination of the collections, and interviews with relevant staff. The written report provides observations, recommendations, and resources to serve as a guide in the development of a comprehensive preservation plan for the collections. Eligibility: Institutions with paper-based humanities collections that are available to the public on a regularly scheduled basis and that have national or regional significance are encouraged to apply.

An Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan is an integral part of a comprehensive Preservation Program. The preparation and continued updating of a plan has several benefits including identification of areas of risk and hazards, establishment of procedures and systems to mitigate potential risks, determination of collections priorities, and development of procedures for quick response to limit damage to collections. Participating institutions will receive a written risk assessment report and will work with a CCAHA preservation expert to develop a full emergency preparedness and response plan for their collections. The plan will include information on essential contacts, emergency response and recovery vendors, emergency communication, insurance, salvage priorities for the collections, and salvage procedures relevant to the types of materials in the institution’s collections. Eligibility: Small to mid-sized institutions with humanities-based collections of regional or national significance are eligible and encouraged to apply.
