International library leaders discuss the preservation of library collections affected by climate change
About this event
The British Library is hosting a series of webinars focused on libraries and the climate crisis. The aim of the series is to bring together international library leaders to share their different responses to the climate emergency.
This webinar will focus on the work libraries are doing to preserve their collections as they become more vulnerable to climate change. As they face the rising risks of fires and floods, increased temperatures and other adverse weather events, the libraries are adapting their practices to safeguard their collections. This session will explore strategies and practice that libraries around the world are deploying to adapt to the changing climate.
