Preservation Essentials

A Preservation Focus on K–12 Outreach

---

Abstract

Archives, libraries, and museums enrich the lives of the public through outreach and education. Many institutions provide resources to educators and parents through kits, digital programs, and in-person workshops. Developing preservation programming can combine science, art, history, and any number of topics to create programs that are exciting, hands-on, and valuable to the educational community. K–12 outreach can introduce an institution to a new audience that may not otherwise attend, while also nurturing a love and respect for history among younger generations.
