At the time, the heritage preservation community was initially a little distrustful of these technologies. That began to change earlier this year, once folks realized that social media at its most effective is rooted in bringing together people of like interests and values to better one another and the societies in which they live, regardless of their location in the world. It's as if this was created for our cause!

This post offers a little insight into what NCPTT is doing in social media and how our efforts might benefit you as well.]]> http://ncptt.nps.gov/how-ncptt-uses-social-media/feed/ 4 http://ncptt.nps.gov/ncptt-to-host-9th-annual-preservation-in-your-community/ http://ncptt.nps.gov/ncptt-to-host-9th-annual-preservation-in-your-community/#comments Thu, 30 Jul 2009 15:04:50 +0000 NCPTT http://ncptt.nps.gov/?p=3951 NCPTT), Cane River National Heritage Area (CRNHA), and Cane River Creole National Historic Park (CARI) will showcase recent research at the 9th annual Preservation in Your Community (PIYC) on August 11, 2009 at 5:30 p.m. at NCPTT’s Lee H.

After two days of intense discussions, the group developed the core of the Pocantico Proclamation on Sustainability and Historic Preservation. While a good starting point to further discussion on sustainability of the built environment, we ask that you review the Pocantico Proclamation and add your comments. Input from the broader preservation community is critical. We appreciate your participation. ]]> http://ncptt.nps.gov/pocantico-proclamation-on-sustainability-and-historic-preservation/feed/ 18
