<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">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.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">This program is intended for collections care staff responsible for documenting, curating, conserving, and archiving modern and contemporary materials.
