Bruce Cheadle spent the entirety of his 93 years in Lockport, Illinois. In a life that spanned almost the entire 20th century, Cheadle was undoubtedly witness to monumental changes in the Will County city that was once home to the headquarters of the Illinois and Michigan canal, a civic and commercial anchor of the community that was closed in 1933. Cheadle played an important role in Lockport's transition from canal town into a Chicago suburb known for its historic downtown, parks, and the Illinois and Michigan National Heritage Corridor, which runs along the route of the former canal. This photo depocts Bruce at age three, along with his grandfather, Arthur Deeming.

Readers of this installment of the Preservation Committee’s yearlong look at audiovisual/media preservation will likely recognize that the information presented in this piece isn’t new, but that the application specific to AV materials may leave some room for revision and improvement at our own institutions. Lucky for all of us, we have two motivating factors going in our favor; the peer pressure of other Illinois institutions considering these AV issues together this year, and the upcoming MayDay call to focus on disaster planning and “take personal and professional responsibility for doing something simple … but that can have a significant impact on an individual’s or a repository’s ability to respond.”
