Panel Discussion to tackle the questions around Virtual Couriering and Condition checking
The Icon Modern Materials Network and Care of Collections Group are pleased to present an online panel discussion looking at virtual couriering and condition assessing on Thursday the 29th April, 18:00-19:30 BST.
Over the past year, virtual couriering has become a necessity as travel has come to a halt. As we tentatively look to the future, how do we use this new tool to save valuable funds and reduce an institution’s carbon footprint while still maintaining high standards of collection care?
We will be joined by a mixture of heritage professionals to discuss why to do it, when to do it and how to do it.
