Archives and Records Association (UK and Ireland) Conference Manchester (UK) Deansgate Hilton Hotel, 30th August – 1st September 2017
Archive Conservation There are many fascinating subjects that will be covered in the conservation stream of the ARA conference in Manchester this year, with many new techniques and developments being introduced. Be sure to register and book a place. Keep up to date with what is happening in the preservation world as this is the only conference that deals directly with Archives conservation in the UK. Whatever your speciality, there will be chances to learn and contribute to the ever moving dynamic debate. As an opportunity to network with colleagues, the ARA conference is second to none. We always work hard to give value for money for our conference. Here is a sample of some of the speakers who will be participating at this year’s conference: · The development of a single volume, multi-fasicule binding method for archival documents · Identification and characteristics of popular 19th Century photographic processes (workshop) · Re-mounting Herbarium specimens: a voyage of discovery · History of papermaking and early use of machines Our full programme with over twenty speakers on the conservation stream is available to view on our website.
