A preservation assessment of over 1,000 linear feet of institutional records, manuscripts, audiovisual materials, photographs, rare books, and artifacts documenting the college's innovative educational programs, including the Expressive Therapies graduate program, the first curriculum to integrate dance, theater, psychodrama, music, poetry, and the visual arts with the practice of psychotherapy.
The Lesley University Archives (LUA) at Lesley University is seeking funding to hire a consultant specifically knowledgeable about archives and preservation from the Northeast Document Conservation Center to conduct a general preservation assessment of the collections housed in the Lesley University Archives and to draft a plan for the care and preservation of these collections. A general preservation assessment will improve the LUA’s ability to preserve and care for its permanent collection of University records, prints and photographs, books and journals, and sound recordings.
