Call for papers--Textile conservation

Abstracts are invited for papers to be presented at the Textile
Specialty Group session at the AIC Annual Meeting in June 2003 in
Arlington, Virginia. The theme for the session is the concept of
"Pushing the Envelope".  This is a broad topic that encompasses
treatments or research that expand traditional textile conservation
treatment parameters.  These parameters may include ethical issues,
unusual materials either treated or used in treatments, techniques
developed specifically for a treatment, or any other unusual,
creative or thought-provoking aspect of treatment.

Papers on topics outside of this theme are also welcome.

Abstracts should be sent to

    Deborah Bede
    Textile Specialty Group Vice Chair
