During my undergraduate studies, I had the opportunity to work for the school’s Collections Care and Preservation Department at the Hayden Library’s Conservation Lab. Within my four years of working at the Conservation Lab for ASU's Collections Care & Preservation Department I learned various types treatments. These treatments range from housing objects to performing various forms of repairs to bound and unbound artifacts on paper.
Conservation plays a pivotal role in collections pertaining to recovery, safety, and sanctioning of the past. It is of great importance to preserve such cultural heritage as it is not merely an artistic manifestation, but it is also an abundance of knowledge. Caring for works of historical value and culture significance is significant for it reflects the integrity of people through values, beliefs, and aspirations.
