Sustaining Our Heritage: The IMLS Achievement
This is a book about connections, about the power of real things and experiences to extend the imagination and link us to the dazzling variety of human experience. It is a story of responsibility, a responsibility that belongs to all Americans to assure that the evidence of our artistic, historical and scientific heritage survives into the future. And, finally, it is a book about conservation, about the training, talents and techniques that are actively protecting the diverse collections that are our touchstones to understanding. The Institute of Museum and Library Services has proudly supported conservation in America's museums since 1984, when, as the Institute of Museum Services, it first identified a critical federal role in ensuring the preservation of our collective heritage. Conservation Project Support, often the types of conservation activities funded by IMLS benefit the object, the museum and the public. With extraordinary power, the conservators work links us to a renewed understanding of our world.
