AIC



There comes a time in every life, where one must work. There are numerous options out there for job seekers in archiving, however, there are far fewer organizations that seek to unite them. "The American Institute for Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works (AIC) exists to support the conservation professionals who preserve our cultural heritage" (AIC, 2008). The organization offers an interesting and well constructed website for this purpose. They also host annual meetings, several workshops, provide scholarships, and assist patrons in finding conservators.

I think this could be an interesting job. Apparantly, Disney hires many information professionals for this purpuse.

I think Disney's conservationists are more environmentally geared. They research animals and ways to help save them all around the world.
