  8. Workshops
    • The Illinois Fire Service Institute workshop held on June 30, 2011 was a success. Feedback was all very positive. Future workshop possibilities were discussed. Ross suggested a survey of (1) what people would like to see in workshops; and (b) how far they were willing to travel. Specific workshop ideas included:
    • Book Repair II workshop for Spring 2012. Possible location Springfield or Heartland Community College in Normal. This workshop would focus on brittle books, enclosures, when to withdraw, etc. Bonnie has taught how to make clamshell boxes using corrugated cardboard. She believes this will only take 2 hours. Another type of enclosure discussed was a tuxedo box. This workshop will probably take place during Preservation Week, April 22-28, 2012.
    • An ICPN workshop is planned for March / April 2012 at SIUC and throughout Illinois during the spring/summer of 2012; Julie offered a possible CARLI tie-in (see http://icpn.museum.state.il.us/events_list for past example)
    • Wet / mold presentation (summer 2012?)
    • A basic book repair institute (later in 2012?) We will explore details for these in our next meeting.

The meeting was adjourned at 2:15pm.
