Photograph Preservation Initiatives

[Ioannis Vasallos]

Our team is collecting information on photograph preservation projects throughout the world to assist us as we write a monograph titled, Significance, Use, and Conservation of Photograph and Image Collections, to be published in the Routledge Series in Conservation and Museology. In these survey questions, we are broadly defining photograph preservation projects to include photograph conservation and rehousing, emergency response, education and outreach, research, and digital image collection initiatives. We are particularly interested in learning about projects that promote conservation advocacy and community engagement.

Your privacy is important to us. Your data is protected and will not be shared beyond this research group. We would greatly appreciate it if you could complete the survey before March 10. It should take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete. Your input will be a tremendous help in raising awareness of photographic heritage worldwide.
