The European Research Centre for Book and Paper Conservation-Restoration was founded in March 2010. It was created on the initiative of the community of conservator-restorers, archivists, librarians and other professionals all over Europe, who saw an urgent need to foster research in book and paper conservation to be able to rescue the graphical and written heritage more efficiently.
The general aims of the research centre are the following:
- to initiate, execute and support research in the field of book and paper conservation-restoration,
- to provide tools for research and practical conservation in the field of book and paper conservation-restoration,
- to communicate and disseminate research results to those who can apply them to the heritage.
