[Nhcoll-l] Fluid course

[Susan Gallagher]

I’m curious to know if a similar, though much less intensive course is
offered in another (closer!) venue? Or maybe there is a publication someone
can recommend? Something for naturalists, classroom biology teachers,
environmental educators, etc. 

 

We get a lot of things in jars donated here, and I often don’t know what the
liquid is or how to even go about finding out. There are other things I’d
like to pickle myself, just for display purposes, but I’m not always sure
how to go about it. Any advice?

Dear All, 

 

Simon Moore's ever-popular four day fluid preservation course is due to take
place yet again at the Horniman Museum, 100 London Rd, Forest Hill, London,
SE23 3PQ from the 3rd  to 6th December 2012.  

The course will take the usual four day format and the cost is £270 for the
four days and will cover all aspects of fluid preservation and conservation
of fluid-preserved specimens.  

The course comprises PowerPoint presentations each day for about 1 hour and
the rest of the day is devoted entirely to practical work.

Members of NatSCA may apply for bursaries to help cover costs if budgets are
short.

Please apply to Simon Moore: couteaufin at aol.com and advise him of any
personal allergies that you may have and also request a schedule if you
require one in advance.

Full handouts (including risk assessments) are included in the cost and
accommodation can be sought in the local area. 

 

With all good wishes, Simon
