The Natural History Collections Working Group (NHWG) invites submissions

Contributions should explore issues relating to the conservation of
Natural History collections.  This may include, but is not limited to
topics from zoology, botany, entomology, mineralogy and/or
palaeontology.  Solutions for a range of issues with materials in
natural history conservation are encouraged, including verdigris, wet
collections, pesticides, repatriation, storage and packaging, security,
and preventive conservation.

 

Papers highlighting ethical issues and collaborative research are also
encouraged. 

 

Please email abstracts of no more than 200 words by Tuesday May 15th,
2012, to nhwg.newsletter.17 at gmail.com

 

Please ensure the names, addresses and emails of all authors are
