Panel Description: In recognition of the successful new LIS curricular initiatives in the area of cultural heritage preservation, the panel presentation will represent emerging curricula in this area by giving "reports" on those programs that have initiated relevant courses of study, tracks, and/or certificate programs at the bachelors and/or masters levels.  The following questions will be addressed in the reports and discussion of participants' program topics: Where is historic preservation and architecture in these emerging programs? What are the common competencies in these cultural heritage preservation programs? Is there a holistic approach to be identified? What are the challenges for building programs? What are the opportunities, given new technologies for building programs?  Nationally?  Internationally? What are the opportunities for collaboration? 

Please join us for this very informative topical presentation and discussion.

Sincerely,
Archives/Preservation SIG Panel Working Group
