AIC Sustainability Committee - Call for Papers! AIC 47th Annual Meeting 13-17 May, 2019 New England
The Sustainability Committee (SC) seeks abstracts for papers to be presented at the upcoming AIC Annual Meeting in Uncasville, CT and New England, May 13-17, 2019. This year's theme is "New Tools, Techniques, and Tactics in Conservation and Collection Care." Submission of original research and work related to the theme are welcome, and any submissions related to sustainable conservation and preservation will be considered. Topic ideas include: - How does sustainability affect how you select, use, and dispose of materials? - Have you developed any new tools or tactics to make your practice more sustainable? - Have you implemented more sustainable practices in your institution? - How does environmental, social, or economic sustainability affect your practice in a way now that it did not previously? - What conservation techniques you have tried—successfully or not—to make sustainable? Interested authors may submit abstracts directly to the Sustainability session or to the open call for papers through the OpenWater abstract submission portal <https://aic.secure-platform.com/a/solicitations/login/1081?returnUrl=http%3A%2F%2Faic.secure-platform.com%2Fa%2Fsolicitations%2Fhome%2F1081>.
