Dear Conservators, This is a message on behalf of Routledge, Taylor & Francis, who have recently partnered with the online 3D viewing platform Sketchfab to allow authors to publish 3D models in conservation journals, such as Journal of the American Institute for Conservation, Studies in Conservation and the Journal of the Institute of Conservation.
The following is a link to a blog post published on Routledge's Author Service's site about publishing 3D models in academic journals: https://authorservices.taylorandfrancis.com/3d-models/. This includes best practice advice on creating 3D models and preparing them for publication. This blog post has been written by a PhD student, Sam Bromage, who is working with Routledge on a project looking at 3D modelling in Archaeology and Heritage research. Sam has also created a survey on the topic. The aim is to understand how 3D models are being used by researchers and practitioners in museums, conservation and cultural heritage. If you have a chance, we'd be delighted if would take part in this survey and/or share with your contacts: https://bit.ly/2ZhNX3E Please feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions about publishing 3D models in academic journals, or the above research project.
