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.
