SUMMARY:Preservation Week Celebration: A guided tour of the MIT Libraries' collections on exhibition at the MIT Museum
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an MIT Museum-guided tour. We will visit three 
 exhibitions\, AI: Mind the Gap\, Monsters of the Deep\, and Essential MIT\, 
 which showcase the Libraries' collections on display. We will also visit 
 one exhibition\, MIT Collects: Technology and the Dream\, where Libraries' 
 staff collaborated to conserve and display an MIT artifact\, Robert 
 Robertson Taylor's Diploma. This event is part of our ALA Preservation Week 
 Celebration at MIT.\n\nThe phrase "Preserve Knowledge" found in the 
 Institute and Libraries' missions encapsulates the work of the MIT 
 Libraries' Department of Distinctive Collections (DDC). The DDC preserves 
 the Institute's physical and unique collections. We invite you to join us 
 for this year's ALA Preservation Week Celebration at MIT\, where we will 
 highlight the collaborative and innovative methods we use to preserve and 
 amplify the Institute's essential core collections. We also focus on how 
 our staff safeguards the global human transmission of historical 
 technologies related to bookmaking\, printmaking\, and historical writing 
 traditions.\n\nThe DDC is home to the Aga Khan Documentation Center\, the 
 Institute Archives\, the Maihaugen Gallery\, Public Services\, Rare Books\, 
 Records Management\, the Visual Collection\, and the Wunsch Conservation 
 Lab.  \n\n \n\n\n	Registration required. \n	Duration: 12–1:30 pm\n	The 
 tour begins promptly at 12:00 pm. \n	Meet in the MIT Museum entrance Lobby. 
 \n	Registration is limited to 20 people.\n
