<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Dear Ms. Catharine Hawks,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Does your position center on collection care, collection management, preservation and access, and/or registration?</span></strong><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">
In preparation for a major collaborative project defining the role, responsibilities, and competencies of collection management and preservation professionals in sustaining access to cultural heritage, AIC’s Collection Care Network (AIC CCN) would like your
feedback.<br>
<br>
AIC CCN seeks to learn more about how a broad range of titles and responsibilities have been assigned to
<strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">institutional staff charged with the collection management and preservation of collections</span></strong>. Are titles commensurate with responsibilities? How do institutional perceptions of the role collection
management and preservation staff play affect overall preservation and access? The competencies project will use the data from this survey to identify opportunities for collaboration, professional support, training, and advocacy between collection management
and conservation professionals.<br>
<br>
<strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Please help circulate this survey to collection care, preservation, and collection management professionals with whom you work.</span></strong> This survey is targeting professionals other than treatment-specific
conservators, conservation administrators, and conservation scientists. If you are a preventive conservator, please feel free to take this survey. While many conservators spend some portion of their time performing collection management tasks, this survey
seeks information from collection management staff that will be used to inform a document focusing specifically on collection management and preservation professionals. A subsequent project will review the AIC document “Defining A Conservator” for which conservation
input will be sought.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
