Evaluation
Evaluation was an important component of the CCC grant. Evaluative efforts were led by the grant's Evaluation Working Group. In year one, the
Evaluation Working Group defined the CCC project's quantitative assessment needs.
In year two, the group added new members with expertise in qualitative assessment and drafted a comprehensive plan for qualitative evaluation. Over
the course of years two and three, several qualitative evaluation efforts were undertaken, and all data that was gathered and tracked from the
beginning of the project was analyzed.

themselves as they reviewed the materials in the following areas:
Condition and conservation review
Fastener removal
Privacy and IP review
This review included identifying materials in need of conservation work, removing fasteners such as staples or paper clips from pages, and identifying
materials with privacy or copyright concerns.
