Dear colleagues,

Registration is open for the online edition of the course Care and Management of Natural History Collections.

Dates and schedule: Online live sessions on the 28th and 30th of August,

and 1st, 4th, 6th and 8th of September, from 16:00 to 18.00 and from

18:30 to 20:30 (Madrid time zone). The rest of the time will be taught

with pre-recorded lectures to watch asynchronously.

Instructors: John E. Simmons (Museologica, USA) and Dr. Greg McDonald

(Bureau of Land Management, USA)

Course Overview: Using a combination of lectures, discussions,

demonstrations, and readings, this course will teach participants how to

better care for and manage all natural history collections (including

botany, geosciences, and zoology).

The importance of the collections storage environment is emphasized, as

well as the identification and selection of inert materials, testing

locally available materials, adapting collections care standards to

particular environmental conditions, and good management through sound

policies and collection planning.

Rather than the traditional discipline-based approach, the course

teaches collections care based on collection material and preparation

type―dry preparations, wet preparations, and documentation (including

paper-based and electronic media).

The course will benefit individuals who already have experience in

caring for natural history collections, as well as those who intend to

work with natural history collections.
