   Many collections found in libraries, archives, museums and
  private collections contain unique specialty papers. Specialty papers
  (such  as dyed, coated or tracing papers) are used for many types of
   objects (including letters, maps, sketches, illustrations,
   architectural drawings, posters and greeting cards). This
  course is     designed to familiarize professionals with the nature and
  diversity    of specialty papers, training participants through lectures
  and   laboratory demonstrations in techniques used to identify the
   composition and condition of these types of collections. The
  course   will cover case studies about traditional and specialty papers
   researched and analyzed at the Smithsonian. Information used
  to   appraise collections will also be discussed. The course is
  intended    to inform prospective caretakers and appraisers on the nature
  of   these materials.   Instructor:  Dianne van der Reyden
