New Jersey State Library
Preservation Resources
  
Public
libraries are often repositories for important local
history collections and cultural artifacts that deserve attention
and care. Since librarians are the stewards
of these irreplaceable collections, the New Jersey
State Library has assembled a number of resources to
help you in your preservation planning.
Don’t think you have a local history collection? Take a good
look around your library. If you have any of the following,
then the town’s irreplaceable local history
is in your care:
Newspapers, maps, photographs, postcards,
oral history, archival records of local clubs
and agencies, family papers, government master
plans, municipal meeting minutes, fine art,
private papers.
