1. Input requested for proposed pressure-sensitive tape removal workshop 2. RE: Scroll Vol. 6 - Call for Submissions ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1.From: Seth Irwin Posted: Monday April 6, 2026 7:02 AM Subject: Input requested for proposed pressure-sensitive tape removal workshop Message: Dear Colleagues, The Univ. of Utah's Marriott Library is anxious to determine whether hosting a tape removal workshop would be useful to the profession. We have a sense that practitioners would benefit from and enjoy engaging with Seth Irwin and Noah Smutz (paper conservators in private practice) who work with a wide variety of pressure sensitive tape problems and are dynamic teachers. The Marriott Library's Dean has asked me to gather input from conservators about weather this topic would indeed fill a need. So, please be kind enough to respond to a two-question survey about a proposed tape removal workshop sometime later this year: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=5-AXUp1TY0Wxv3xtzwdPkYtFzqf8sq9Fn_pg36RibSNUQUk4SFRBMDRPM1I3M0JEMUxMSUM1WkpYMS4u&route=shorturl If there is sufficient interest expressed Marriott Library would be pleased to host this three-day course covering a range of treatment options for removing pressure-sensitive tapes and reducing tape stains. Your comments on this are also welcome and will remain anonymous, so I invite your comments which can also be included in the survey. For questions, please message me offline at [email protected] <[email protected]> Many thanks in advance for your help – thank you!

It is a platform for cultural heritage students and emerging professionals to express their creativity and share their ideas. Find us at: www.studentconservators.com/scroll <http://www.studentconservators.com/scroll> Submissions for Volume 6 are now open! Scroll invites international emerging conservators to submit articles for publication. Send us an abstract (maximum 200 words) by 13 April 2025. Full length manuscripts are due 15 June 2026. We are looking for content to fit in the below categories: [ essays ] This could be an opinion piece, critique, research, or random musing. Maybe something could be pulled together by reworking an assignment or fleshing out an idea that was outside the scope of an assignment. [ reviews ] Books, articles, journals, workshops, exhibitions, webinars, conferences - anything that's caught your attention as inspiring or important, or in desperate need of critique. [ interviews ] Conducted for the purpose of publication, for instance, directing questions at a conservator or artist to understand and record their processes and techniques. [ reports ] Formalise the ideas and results of a personal project or treatment with a report. Or create a report or summary of a conference or webinar. [ creative ] Creative writing, illustrations and images, satire… all forms considered. Scroll does not prescribe a word count. However, we find that submissions ranging between 500 and 5,000 words match our readership's expectations well. All writing should be referenced per APA style, Seventh Edition, which can be found HERE <https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines>.
