This course offers them practical solutions and empowers their staff with valuable preservation skills. HOST: And what challenges have you encountered while teaching this subject?

But regardless of technology, understanding basic principles will always be crucial. HOST: Well, Dr. Smith, thank you for sharing your insights with us today.
