On October 31 2013 IRPA-KIK organises a conference on management and conservation of photographic collections. Many institutions (museums, libraries, archives, etc.) that have photographic collections are facing problems concerning their management: storage, inventory, digitalization, access, copyright issues, status and value attached to the collection
etc.
The conference offers professionals who are confronted with these problems an occasion to develop a practical and ethical framework for the conservation of photographic collections.
If you would like to present a paper on one of the diverse topics concerning this theme, you can send your proposal to IRPA-KIK before March 31 2013.
Main colloquium topics
- Collections care and management
- (Preventive) conservation
- Risk management
- Storage for photographic collections
- Access
- Copyright
- Digitization
- Exhibition
- The status of the image
- Advocacy
Language
The principal language of the conference will be English, but papers in French will also be welcome.
