The Objects Specialty Group Postprints have been published regularly since 1992 and include papers developed from presentations given at annual meetings of the American Institute for Conservation (AIC). Though papers are edited for clarity and content, the OSG Postprints is not a peer-reviewed publication, rather a conference proceedings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Objects Specialty Group (OSG) of AIC supports the professional development of those who care for a broad range of objects including archaeological and ethnographic works, decorative arts and sculpture, contemporary art, and historic collections. More information about the group is available on the AIC website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

How OSG Handles Review<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. OSG Postprints Editors will review your initial submission for clarity, content, and adherence to the JAIC Style Guide. They will suggest changes, check references, pose questions, and request more information. The Track Changes feature in Word will be enabled, allowing authors to accept and reject suggested revisions as they wish.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. The reviewed document will be returned to the authors for revisions based on these comments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. The author-revised draft will be sent to an outside publishing vendor who will perform copy editing and layout editing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Authors will be sent a final publication proof, and are asked to use the \u201cFinal Proof Review Checklist\u201d (found on the Guidelines for Authors<\/a> page) to check for any errors before the article is published.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Cross Publication with JAIC<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
