Heritage Preservation's  Conservation Assessment Program Applications to be 
Mailed on  Friday, September 4


The 2010  Conservation Assessment Program (CAP) applications will be  
mailed on Friday, September 4, 2009, to museums on the CAP  mailing list and will 
also be available on Heritage  Preservation’s Web site at 
www.heritagepreservation.org. The  postmark deadline for applications is December 1, 2009. 
The  CAP program now operates on an expedited schedule, making it  possible 
for museums to receive collections advice quickly.  Site visits for 
participants may begin as early as January  1, 2010 and final reports must be 
submitted to Heritage  Preservation by November 1, 2010. CAP is administered by  
Heritage Preservation and supported through a cooperative  agreement with the 
Institute of Museum and Library  Services.

In 2010, Heritage  Preservation will celebrate CAP’s 20th year of helping  
museums obtain general collections assessments. Keep an eye  on the _CAP 
webpage_

participants from the past twenty years and the improvements  they have 
made in collections care at their  museums.
