#IconBPG21 Triennial agenda

It’s time! The Book and Paper Group are excited to announce that the agenda and ticket sales for the #IconBPG21 upcoming conference are live.  The conference will take place over four  afternoons, from October 4th to October 7th, 2021, and will be held online on Accelevents,  an all-inclusive and interactive conferencing platform.

This third BPG conference offers an opportunity to share and exchange ideas demonstrating how we are constantly required to evolve within the Book and Paper specialism. We bring conservation forward with modern advocacy and solving current issues. How are sustainable environmental decisions incorporated into our work? How are we addressing the lack of diversity working on a material that holds such diverse history and cultures? What new tools, techniques and treatments have been adapted or introduced to the field? How is Book and Paper conservation merging with digital solutions to improve access and efficiency in workflows?

Conference Agenda:

We have a diverse and exciting line-up of keynote speakers, presenters, workshops, virtual tours, posters and dynamic sessions, and many opportunities to network and socialise. You can currently find keynote presenters and speakers on the agenda. Details of further sessions will be updated in the coming weeks, so keep your eyes peeled for any changes.
