The Regional Alliance for Preservation (RAP) is pleased to announce
the launch of our new website at

    <URL:http://www.PreserveCollections.org>

RAP, a national network of nonprofit organizations with expertise in
the field of conservation and preservation, provides information and
resources on preservation and conservation for cultural institutions
and the public throughout the United States. The new website
includes a calendar of Training and Educational Opportunities; a
list of Conservation and Preservation Services provided by RAP
members; links to related organizations; and a Publications and
Resources section with a searchable bibliography of full text
reports and documents, and specialized bibliographies prepared to
answer common collection care concerns for libraries, archives,
museums, historical societies, and house museums.

The RAP website is made possible through funding from the National
Endowment for the Humanities.
