Preservation Consulting in Tajikistan

I am writing to find interested people in the preservation administration field for a consulting project in Tajikistan.  A librarian there, with ties to the Mortenson Center for International Librarianship at the University of Illinois, has written a successful grant to bring in a US librarian to advise her a specific project (but I would bet it will extend to more general preservation administrative concerns).  She would like the visit for May or September, 2004.  I think someone with preservation or conservation experience would be the best.  However, it might also be possible for a subject specialist in Central Asia to do the visit, as long as he/she knew a lot about preservation or got a very thorough briefing before going over there.

If you have any interest in this, please contact me as soon as possible.  Thanks,
