A general preservation assessment of archives, photographs, architectural drawings, and other records related to the history of a small Pennsylvania steel mill town during the 19th and 20th century.

Carnegie Library of Homestead will engage a archivist to conduct an assessment of the Archival Collection. The consultant would visit the institution to assess the condition and practices and would prepare a report that summaries the findings and prioritize recommendations for future preservation and accessibility.
