First announcement and call for abstracts:

8th Indoor Air Quality 2008 Meeting (IAQ2008)
Kunsthistorisches Museum
Vienna

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) is a workshop series that is devoted to
reporting and discussing the progress in the field of indoor air
quality related research in museums, archives and collections. The
meetings provide an informal, yet highlevel, trans-disciplinary
forum for the discussion of new scientific results on corrosion and
degradation mechanisms due to indoor air pollution as well as
strategies for air quality monitoring and mitigation - with
particular emphasis on novel dosimeter or sensor systems. We
cordially invite you to participate in this highly stimulating and
practically oriented meeting and would be pleased to welcome you to
the IAQ2008 workshop in Vienna coming spring!
