Curso online sobre el manejo de colecciones de historia natural, del 9 al 25 de abril, 2024
Ya está abierta la inscripción de la octava edición del curso “Care and Management of Natural History Collections”.
Fechas: sesiones en directo el 9, 11, 16, 18, 23, y 25 de abril, 2024, de 16:00 a 20:30 (zona horaria de Madrid).
Profesorado: John E. Simmons (Museologica, USA) y Dr. Greg McDonald (Bureau of Land Management, USA)
Resumen del curso (en inglés, que es el idioma en el que se impartirá el mismo):
Using a combination of lectures, discussions, demonstrations, and readings, this course will teach participants how to better care for and manage all natural history collections (including botany, geosciences, and zoology).
The importance of the collections storage environment is emphasized, as well as the identification and selection of inert materials, testing locally available materials, adapting collections care standards to particular environmental conditions, and good management through sound policies and collection planning.
Rather than the traditional discipline-based approach, the course teaches collections care based on collection material and preparation type―dry preparations, wet preparations, and documentation (including paper-based and electronic media).
The course will benefit individuals who already have experience in caring for natural history collections, as well as those who intend to work with natural history collections.
