Adhesives and consolidants are an important component of almost

scientists and conservators from around the world to share their
practical and theoretical knowledge about the use of adhesives and
consolidants on historic objects.
The program will include a mix of lectures, posters, tours, and
workshops, and will provide ample opportunity for stimulating
discussions on topics such as:
* the suitability of various adhesives and
consolidants
* new products, techniques and/or
treatments
* adhesive-substrate interactions
* traditional adhesives
* joint design
* adhesive removal
* uniquely Canadian applications.
The preliminary lists of speakers, poster presenters, and
