Jane Henderson and I presented a paper at ICON's CF10 conference
entitled 'Sustainability Benchmarks for collections care' which
proposed a number of measures which conservators can take to reduce
the environmental impact of their practice. In response to feedback
at the conference we have placed the benchmarks online and would
like to offer our webspace as a place for further discussions
surrounding environmental sustainability and conservation practice.
If you would like to access the website and participate in this
discussion please email me.
