Subject: Conservation of industrial collections
I am currently researching the conservation of industrial collections. Focus is primarily into their preventive care. Specifically I would be interested in any references, abstracts or workshops related to this field. I have undertaken preparatory research and come up with a number of interesting references, however a number of these are proving hard to procure. For example I understand that Anne Moncrieff had presented a workshop at the IIC-CG Workshop in 1992 titled Conservation of Industrial Collections and that Anne Moncrieff and Roger Price had also developed three-year training course for the Science Museum in London, England. I would be interested in corresponding with either Ms. Moncrieff or Mr. Price regarding their work. If anyone knows how I could reach either it would be greatly appreciated. I would also be interested in hearing from any other persons involved in the preservation of industrial collections, specifically those charged with the preservation of large industrial items being stored outdoors.
