AGM and Workshop on Monetary Appraisal

Please join us for the Council of Archives New Brunswick AGM 2008 on May 9th in the Milham Room of the Harriet Irving Library (UNB – Fredericton Campus).  The AGM will begin at 9:00 a.m., followed by what promises to be an educational and entertaining workshop on monetary appraisal.

The request for monetary appraisal as part of a donation agreement is an ongoing challenge for archivists. This workshop will provide both a theoretical and practical background. Workshop leaders will be Carman Carroll and Burt Glendenning, experienced archivists and monetary appraisers, recognized by NAAB. Workshop participants are invited to bring one or more items which the workshop leaders will then discuss in terms of how they would appraise them, and then translate that appraisal into financial terms. It is the perfect opportunity to learn what affects the monetary value of a donation.

The schedule for the event will be as follows:

9:00- 10:15 Council of Archives New Brunswick AGM
10:15-10:30 Coffee Break
10:30-12:00 Workshop on Monetary Appraisal
12:00-1:00 Lunch
1:00-2:00* continuation of Workshop on Monetary Appraisal.

*Workshop may extend past 2:00 depending on the number of items brought for appraisal.

Note that Coffee Break and Lunch will be provided.

The cost of the workshop is $15 for each participant.  Pre-registration and pre-payment are required by May 5.  Please visit our website to download the registration form:
