Conference Announcement****************************

Dear Colleagues:

As some of you might know, the Smithsonian Institution's "National
Conference On Cultural Property Protection," established in 1977, is the
major annual event held anywhere in the world which addresses the
concerns of all types of cultural and educational institutions in the
areas of Security, Fire Protection, Safety, Facilities Management and
Emergency-Disaster Planning-Preparedness.

For 2001, this conference will be held in Washington, D.C. the 4th
through the 8th of February, 2001.  Please visit the conference web site
at:
        http://natconf.si.edu

for registration details.

This Conference makes a concerted effort to reach out to and include the
protection concerns of all cultural and public institutions within the
scope of its wide-ranging operations; Museums, Libraries, Science
Centers, Botanical Gardens and Arboreta, Theme Parks, Open-Air Museums,
Zoological Parks (where the public and staff must be protected "from the
collection") and Historic Houses.

In conjunction with this Conference, MSI will again organize a Trade
Show of products and services which are applicable to the functions of
protecting cultural property from various types of threats in these
areas.

If we may be of some assistance to you with additional information,
please contact us.

Kind Regards

Roger Wulff
Trade Show Manager
