Preparing for Disasters and Confronting the Unexpected in Conservation May 13 –17, 2016, Palais des Congrès, Montreal, Quebec, Canada Presentations at this meeting will address in a broad-based way the impact of past, present, and future disasters on the protec- tion of cultural property, as well as confronting the unexpected in conservation (whether it occurs during the treatment of an artifact or during a natural disaster). The scope of the theme includes immediate reactions, such as the application of crowd- mapping technology to aid response efforts, as well as longer term developments stemming from disasters, such as the adoption of simple strategies: Fail to Plan – Plan to Fail, effective risk assessment methodologies, the rapid transformation of damaged artifacts into objects of veneration, and the repercussions of instantaneous visibility of destruction.

The assessment evaluated the buildings and environments as they relate to the preservation needs of the materials; examined current policies, storage, and handling procedures; and assessed the general condition of materials. Observations and recommendations are based on a pre-site visit questionnaire, a full-day site visit, and discussions with Chairman Greg Stahl, Vice Chairman Leo Baldyga, Treasurer and Secretary Susan Harris, Members Marion Cafferky, William Keyes, Alex Leonard, Kim Shipala, and Volunteer Cheri Leonard. Wrentham Historical Commission was established on March 27, 1967 and is responsible the stewardship and exhibition of Wrentham’s history. To these ends, WHC maintains an archives of historical materials and artifacts, manages the circa 1740’s Wampum House, and operates a plaque program to mark locations of historical significance in the Town. In 2010, WHC renovated the Old Fiske Museum, which was formally the town library, to make it suitable for the storage of historical collections.

The restoration of works Tof art can alter the perception of authenticity, and may result in the creation of fakes and forgeries. These interactions set the stage for the subject of this book, which initially examines the conservation perspective, then continues with a detailed discussion of what “authenticity” means, and the philosophical background.

  • SAA Guidelines for Preparing Legacy Archaeology Collections
    GUIDELINES FOR PREPARING LEGACY ARCHAEOLOGICAL COLLECTIONS FOR CURATION Michelle K. Knoll and Bruce B. Huckell ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We are grateful to a number of colleagues for their advice and assistance in compiling and reviewing previous drafts of this document. Our first thanks go to volunteers nearing retirement who completed a preliminary survey about what kinds of collections, samples, and materials they had in their possession that needed to be curated. They helped us assess what topics might best be covered in this guide. Once we started the process of compiling sections and full drafts, we had the good fortune to receive editorial comments, suggestions, and thoughtful reactions from our colleagues on the SAA Committee on Museums, Collections, and Curation. In particular, we are most grateful to committee chair Danielle Benden, Terry Childs, Jenna Domeischel, Susan Gilliland, and Marybeth Tomka. Bill Lipe, Professor Emeritus, Washington State University, long concerned with the proper curation of legacy collections, provided us with much food for thought on both an initial and a revised draft of this guide. We thank Richard Talbot, Brigham Young University, and Janaki Krishna, Natural History Museum of Utah, who also reviewed drafts, and Andrea Knoll for assistance with designing the cover. Our thanks as well to our colleagues at the University of Utah and the University of New Mexico for important conversations about aspects of curation that came up as we worked on the guide. Finally, we are grateful to the SAA Board of Directors for their invitation to prepare the guide and for their review and final approval of it.
