Subject: New Web Resource: Caring for Plastics and Rubber


CCI is pleased to announce that a new web resource designed to assist heritage professionals and institutions is now available on its website. Caring for Plastics and Rubber<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__canada.pch.gc.ca_eng_1468959271356_&d=CwIFAw&c=-dg2m7zWuuDZ0MUcV7Sdqw&r=CLFZJ3fvGSmDp7xK1dNZfh6uGV_h-8NVlo3fXNoRNzI&m=HN22GUQYyr2mYfLu80EL0qczhQr7WYqoaT6Ikn_Y87g&s=iMsPD-iY-kJRvPQe7SBM_8fEstXkAbLyuZEAE_e0FuM&e= > presents key aspects of managing the care of plastic and rubber objects in heritage collections based on the principles of preventive conservation and risk management. It outlines the qualities and characteristics of different types of plastic and rubber and the causes of damage to objects composed of these materials. It also provides examples of preventive conservation practice.



Additional web resources, including content on caring for audio, video and data recording media, will be available in the coming months.





*Please take note that the Canadian Conservation Institute's e-News will be revamped in the coming weeks. Keep an eye out for our new look! And of course, we welcome any feedback you may have as we transition to the new format.*
