Despite the generally agreed profound changes such assessments make to an organization's approach to the care of its collection, there remains a general apprehension concerning the significant effort required to execute such an assessment. This paper describes the development of the QuiskScan, a quick risk scan, which yields an overview over a collection, its values and vulnerabilities with comparatively little effort. The QuiskScan uses a matrix-based approach to map value and vulnerability to the agents of deterioration for different collection units to highlight where significant losses to the collection might occur. Like other risk assessment approaches the QuiskScan involves expert input from across the organization thus helping to create a shared insight into the collection, and an institutional awareness of risks. The method should be regarded as a tool that fits in between relyin... |
