Conservation Guidelines for Archaeologists

This is a booklet designed to help archaeologists ensure that freshly excavated artefacts receive the best possible care during the critical period before they are handed over to the conservator. Copies can be obtained by contacting the Secretary with your request. The booklet is nearly out of print; however the committee is considering a reprint in the future.

Irish Conservation Directory 

IPCRA published two editions of the Irish ConservationDirectory in 1988 and 1998. The second edition of the Directory is pictured and the publication was sponsored by the Heritage Council. It provides useful advice for those seeking guidance on all conservation matters. It also includes a list of conservators available for consultation. The Committee decided not to publish a third edition of the Directory and has instead included all the information on this website, so that it can be instantly updated and is accessible to all.
