As managers of special collections engage with evolving formats and technologies, it is imperative that these professionals remain well versed in papyrus, paper, and principles that inform archival work. The permanence of this content defines our past, informs our present, and shapes our future.

Thinking in a non-traditional strategic manner can ensure continued collection development, access and relevance for the next generation.
