Welcome to the Blog!

The Emerging Leaders Network within AIC now has a presence on the web in the form of a blog! Though still a work in progress, the blog is up and running and available for you to begin communicating with one another in a public forum.

If you would like to post to the blog, e-mail the body of your text to me at rwinfield@aic-faic.org with the word “blog” on the subject line.

  1. Great idea and I think this forum could be very useful.

    Kudos to Ryan and others who made this possible!!!!

  2. Ok I really don’t know how to blog so this is my first try. This is a great Idea. Hi I am Julie and I am a pre program paintings intern looking for advice on moving on from where I am but I don not know where I am heading yet. I would like to get in contact with people out there in the fields of photographic and objects conservation. At the moment I am also a Volunteer with a small museum of history and art helping with preventive conservation in their archives.

  3. Hi Julie,

    You should send your comment into ryan and get it posted as a thread and I think you'll get more reponses.

    In the meantime, I would advise you to go to the AIC website, where they have an excellent downloadable pamphlet on "Training in Conservation" programs in the US including Buffalo State College, U of Delaware, NYU, texas a&m, ucla/getty. That should get you started!

  4. Nice work creating this blog. It will be interesting to see how it develops.

    I’ve been interested in blogs about conservation for a little while now.

    I recently made a post on the blog that I write for the IMA about other blogs that I found.

    My effort was to begin identifying the blogs that are out there. I think it would be useful to have a list of blogs. I’ve asked folks to add a comment on my post if they know of blogs that I didn’t mention. So far, I haven’t got any comments …

    I also made a post about on-line videos about conservation that I found. I wonder if you all are interested in that, too.
