My Personal Preservation Workbook & Planner

The My Personal Preservation Workbook will guide you, with step by step instructions, through 1) identifying your projects, 2) organizing your workflow, 3) tackling the projects one by one, and lastly 4) it will help you set up your own organizational and archival system, so that you can easily identify what has been completed and where everything is stored and shared.
After working through the workbook you can tackle all of your projects by using the My Personal Preservation Planner to identify, document, and track all of your projects as you go. It can even be saved to share with future generations so they know what’s been preserved and where to find it.
