Thank you, Elizabeth.  Does book conservation/paper conservation fall under
"art conservation"?  I did see the NYU program but wasn't sure that is
really what I want to do, though I will check again and look more closely
since there are few programs.

Meredith

PS- I am looking forward to registering for a course at Hunter, "Homer and
Virgil in Translation."  I am really excited about it!

Hi Meredith,

for art conservation in general you must enter a certified program and there
are only three in the country - The Institute of Fine Art at NYU, Buffalo
State and University of Delaware. You can check out NYU's program online at
www.nyu.edu.
