<p class=MsoNormal><u>About the Program:<o:p></o:p></u></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The twentieth and twenty-first centuries introduced a
bewildering array of new materials, used to design a broad range of objects now
collected in museums, libraries, and archives. Many artifacts were designed
to last the centuries, while others that were once innovative show signs of
deterioration. Colors change and fade, structures lose their integrity in
unanticipated ways, or material components become obsolete. Cultural institutions
must understand the long-term preservation needs of these items in order to
determine appropriate priorities for conservation, storage, exhibition,
documentation, and digitization. This two day conference will explore the
guiding principles of collecting and caring for artifacts of key historic
importance from the recent past. Participants will attend general sessions in
the morning and then have the option to select from concurrent sessions in the
afternoon.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>This program is intended for collections care staff
responsible for documenting, curating, conserving, and archiving modern and
contemporary materials. <o:p></o:p></p>
