profiles of people in private practice who give their own top 10 list, and perhaps have someone from each specialty, since the needs are so different.<span>  <\/span>Each person profiled might also be willing to share a \u201cResources\u201d list for their specialty, to help other conservators starting out in the same specialty and procuring supplies, which could accompany the blog post.<\/p>\n<p
