Dear colleagues,
Registration is open for the online edition of the course Care and
Management of Natural History Collections.
Dates and schedule: Online live sessions on 9th, 11th, 16th, 18th, 23rd,
and 25th of April, from 16:00 to 20:30 (Madrid time zone). Total course
hours: 40; 27 hours of live sessions, plus 13 hours of pre-recorded
lectures to watch asynchronously.
Instructors: John E. Simmons (Museologica, USA) and Dr. Greg McDonald
(Bureau of Land Management, USA)
Course Overview: Using a combination of lectures, discussions,
demonstrations, and readings, this course will teach participants how to
better care for and manage all natural history collections (including
botany, geosciences, and zoology).
The importance of the collections storage environment is emphasized, as
well as the identification and selection of inert materials, testing
locally available materials, adapting collections care standards to
particular environmental conditions, and good management through sound
policies and collection planning.
Rather than the traditional discipline-based approach, the course
teaches collections care based on collection material and preparation
type―dry preparations, wet preparations, and documentation (including
paper-based and electronic media).
The course will benefit individuals who already have experience in
caring for natural history collections, as well as those who intend to
work with natural history collections.
