In the past few years conservation sites on the Internet have become increasingly abundant. At the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, we have found these resources indispensable for finding information, making queries, and staying up-to-date with the profession. The following are some of the sites we use most often, man have links that lead to other useful and interesting resources. Michele Derick, Research Scientist at MFA, has just completed the Conservation and Art Materials Database, a wonderful resource available on the MFA homepage, which in the near future will also include the sites below.
