REGISTRATION AND CALL FOR PAPERS

  

For the first time, the international Society for the Preservation of
Natural History Collections (SPNHC) and the Canadian Botanical
Association (CBA/ABC) are holding a joint annual conference, hosted by
the Canadian Museum of Nature. Fully synchronized programs will allow
participants from both organizations to attend any of the concurrent
sessions and participate in many joint conference activities. 

 

With 2010 declared "The International Year of Biodiversity" by the
United Nations, this gathering of natural history collection
professionals and botany specialists will offer many exciting
opportunities for "cross-fertilization" of ideas and transfer of
knowledge between participants. 

 

Our website is now live at http://www.spnhc-cba2010.org/

 

We invite you to visit the site and register for the conference.

 

Come and join us!
