CIN's objective is to facilitate the retrieval and exchange of information concerning conservation and restoration of cultural property. BCIN s contributing partners have brought together over 190,000 bibliographic records on conservation. A great deal of conservation literature is referenced, including the Art and Archaeology Technical Abstracts, technical reports, conference proceedings, journal articles, books and audiovisual and unpublished materials. The database also includes previously unavailable material from private sources, as well as new information gathered by a worldwide network of contributors. See Document Delivery for contributor contact information.
