CAC and CAPC announce release of Canadian Collections Care Survey Summary Report
The Canadian Association for the Conservation of Cultural Property and the Canadian Association of Professional Conservators are pleased to announce the release of the Canadian Collections Care Survey Summary Report. The online survey was launched in May 2018 and collected data from 389 cultural heritage institutions. The survey collected information relating to human, financial, and material resources available to collections care; collection policies and procedures; threats to collections; collection access and use; and issues related to Indigenous cultural heritage collections. The survey results highlight the many valuable ways Canadian collections are utilized, as well as alarming gaps in resources required to ensure that these treasuries of cultural memory are preserved for present and future generations. The data from this survey can be used freely for advocacy, fundraising, and programming purposes. PDFs of the English and French versions of the Summary Report can be downloaded for free below:
