ON PRESERVATION.

This section offers updates on several conferences held in the U.S. on February 1983 which focused on art documentation. Conservators met in May and in September 1982 in the U.S. and addressed a number of areas of concern. The Tenth Annual Meeting of the American Institute for Conservation (AIC), was held in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, from May 26 to 30, 1982 and contained a wealth of information for those interested in book and paper conservation. The 1982 Congress of the International Institute for Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works, the parent of AIC, was held in Washington, D.C. from September 3 to 9, 1982. Over 700 delegates from around the world attended. Its theme was Science and Technology in the Service of Conservation, and papers focused on the collaboration between conservators and scientists. The Society of American Archivists met in Boston, Massachusetts from October 19 to 22, 2005. Its theme was Only One Among Many: Cooperation and Coordination among Allied Disciplines and Professions.
