1) Winners of the Inaugural Australia ICOMOS Victorian Scholarship
 
 
 []             []
 
 
I am delighted to announce that 2008 Australia ICOMOS Victorian Scholarships have been awarded to Trudy Rickard and Emma Russell.
 
The scholarship is part of the implementation of the Victorian Government's strategy Victoria's Heritage: Strengthening our Communities, and is being awarded for the first time this year. Its purpose is to help build capacity within the heritage industry in Victoria, by supporting participation in recognised heritage conservation courses.
 
Australia ICOMOS is very pleased to have been asked to implement this great initiative of the Victorian Government and Heritage Victoria, and hopes it will be adopted in other States and Territories.
 
The winners of the 2008 scholarship have both shown a deep commitment to working with heritage in Victoria.
 
Trudy Rickard is an architect working in the south west of the state where there are many heritage buildings on the Victorian Heritage Register needing expert care. Trudy has been awarded a scholarship of $3890 to attend the University of Canberra course on Heritage Conservation of Traditional Buildings.
 
Emma Russell is a historian who is undertaking significance assessments of community collections, a rapidly emerging area with a high level of demand. Emma has been awarded a scholarship of $1110 to attend two intensive courses offered by Deakin University Department of Cultural Heritage and Museum Studies, in Collections and Moveable Heritage and in Intangible Heritage.
 
My congratulations to Trudy and Emma, and my thanks to the members of the Scholarship Committee for managing the selection process.

2) Heritage in Asia: Converging Forces and Conflicting Values - Abstract Deadline: 1 September 2008
 
An International Conference, 8 - 10 January 2009
Asia Research Institute, National University of Singapore.
 
Abstract Deadline: 1 September 2008
 
Rapid economic and social change across Asia today means the region's heritage is at once under threat and undergoing a revival as never before. Expanding infrastructures, increasing incomes, liberalizing economies and the lowering of borders, both physical and political, are all converging as powerful forces transforming Asia's social, cultural and physical landscapes. But as the region's societies look forward, there are competing forces that ensure they re-visit the past and the inherited. In recent years the idea of 'heritage' - both natural and cultural - has come to the fore across Asia, driven by a language of identity, tradition, revival, and sustainability. For some, heritage has become an effective means for protecting those landscapes, rituals, artifacts or traditional values endangered by rapid socio-economic change. For others, it has emerged as a valuable resource for achieving wider goals such as poverty alleviation, the legitimization of narratives of place and past, nation building or the cultural profiling of citizens. And yet for others, heritage protection is an obstacle inhibiting progress, national unification, or the shedding of unwanted memories.
 
In a region of immensely uneven change - such that the pre-/industrial and post-industrial all co-exist to create simultaneous presents - major analytical challenges arise from the need to preserve, safeguard and restore in contexts where aspirations for modernization and development are powerful and legitimate forces. To date however, much of the analysis of heritage in Asia has relied upon inherited or borrowed conceptions, and assumptions about what should be valued and privileged. The legacies of colonialism, state-centric agendas, social inequality, and the uneasy management of pluralist populations all conspire to stifle open and innovative discussion. There is little doubt that over the coming decade the contestations surrounding heritage in Asia will continue to intensify, whereby converging forces and conflicting values are the norm.
 
Hosted in Singapore, Heritage in Asia: Converging Forces and Conflicting Values examines heritage in relation to the broader social, environmental and economic changes occurring across Asia today. Moving beyond sector specific analyses, we define heritage in holistic terms and include the natural and cultural, the tangible and intangible. We strongly welcome contributions which consider the validity of current heritage theory for understanding contemporary Asia, and where appropriate, offer new conceptual and analytical directions. We also encourage submissions from researchers who offer insights into the connections between heritage and social development, urban studies, post-conflict reconstruction, migration/diaspora, trans-national capitalism, human rights, or popular culture. The conference provides the interdisciplinary platform necessary for making sense of the broader contexts and forces surrounding heritage in Asia today; and, in so doing, offers an innovative look at the rapid and complex socio-cultural changes now occurring across the region.
 
Confirmed Keynote Speakers:
 
Prof. William Logan, UNESCO Chair and Director of Cultural Heritage Centre for Asia-Pacific, Deakin University
Dr Nobuko Inaba, Professor of World Heritage Studies Program , University of Tsukuba
Dr Johannes Widodo, Professor of Architecture, National University of Singapore
 
Proposed Themes:
 
Heritage in Cosmopolitan Urban Spaces
Across Asia cities continue to expand at unprecedented rates. Migrating populations, urban development and real estate speculation are placing severe pressure on fragile heritage resources.  Simultaneously though, as cities compete for attention in today's 'new economies' they increasingly draw on heritage resources to brand themselves as sites of cultural or historical interest. What strategies successfully protect historic sites from the real estate developer? What role should the residues of colonialism play in new urban blueprints? How can the social pluralism of today's urban landscapes be reflected and equitably represented in the built environment? Potential themes include:
   
Heritage, Reconstruction and Reconciliation
In recent years devastating disasters - whether it be from earthquakes, cyclones and tsunamis, or from the manmade violence of civil wars and conflict - have led to the destruction of irreplaceable architectural and archaeological sites across Asia. But should reconstruction and revival merely be about the heritage resources themselves, or can heritage play a wider role in the re-constitution of traumatized communities and the reconstruction of livelihoods? Does the language of 'commemoration', so favoured by the international community, merely result in the retention of localized hostilities or can memorials be used as a tool for reconciliation? Potential themes include:
   
Economies of Heritage
Heritage is now widely employed as a 'resource' for socio-economic development. The use of cultural and natural heritage by governments, non-governmental agencies and institutions like the World Bank and Asian Development Bank within a framework of development has yet to receive the critical attention it deserves. Is heritage merely being exploited as an economic resource by wealthy elites or can it contribute to programs of 'sustainable development' that foster more equitable economic growth? Can poverty reduction help curb the illicit trafficking of cultural antiquities? In what circumstances do initiatives to promote intangible heritage create gender specific economies? Potential themes include:
   
Heritage and Diversity
In recent years cultural heritage has emerged as an effective tool for promoting a benign language of difference within and across communities. But how successfully do current heritage policies reflect the cultural, ethnic and religious diversities of Asia? Do UNESCO conventions on 'intangible heritage' promote pluralism or are they enabling states to further their agendas of culturally profiling their citizens? How will the consumption of the Other or the exotic by a fast growing Asian tourism market influence the socio-cultural topography of the region? Potential themes include:
   
Heritage and Modernity
Modernity across Asia has destabilized previously accepted assumptions about 'authenticity' and the aesthetics of nature and culture. Do heritage frameworks conceived within the cultural traditions of 'Western' modernity remain valid for Asia today? In a region undergoing rapid industrialization, is industrial heritage a relevant category of social commemoration? Does a concern for the preservation of cultural heritage inhibit the shedding of the 'post-colonial'? How should natural landscapes best be protected from 'modern' intrusions?  What rights should communities living inside historic landscapes have towards development and 'modernization'? Do new media technologies present new opportunities for interpreting the past? Potential themes include:
   
Submission Details
 
250-word abstracts and a 5-line biography should be submitted by 1 September 2008. Successful applicants will be advised by 15 September 2008and will be required to send in a completed paper by 15 December 2008. Some funding will be available for those in the Asian Region, post-graduate students, and others unable to fund themselves. Selected papers will be put forward for publication in a refereed edited volume.
 
Please submit enquiries and/or Abstracts to Dr Patrick Daly (aripd@nus.edu.sg) or Dr Tim Winter (tim.winter@usyd.edu.au).

4) Future Anterior 5.1 from University of Minnesota Press
 
FUTURE ANTERIOR
Journal of Historic Preservation History, Theory and Criticism
Jorge Otero-Pailos, editor
 
University of Minnesota Press | 2008
ISBN 978-0-8166-5471-0 | paper
Annual Subscription Prices: $30 for individuals; $65.00 for institutions; outside USA add $5.00.
 
An international point of reference for the critical examination of historic preservation
 
Future Anterior approaches historic preservation from a position of critical inquiry, rigorous scholarship, and theoretical analysis. The journal is an important international forum for the critical examination of historic preservation, spurring challenges of its assumptions, goals, methods, and results. As the first and only journal in American academia devoted to the study and advancement of historic preservation, it provides a much-needed bridge between architecture and history.
 
Future Anterior 5.1 is a special issue focused on the historic preservation of Soviet modernist architecture. With articles by leading scholars in the field, the issue is guest-edited by Jean-Louis Cohen, the Sheldon H. Solow Professor in the History of Architecture at NYU, and Barry Bergdoll, Phillip Johnson Chief Curator of Architecture and Design at MoMA. The guest editors were also the organizers of a 2007 MoMA exhibition of revelatory photographs, "Vanguard Lost and Found: Soviet Modernist Architecture between Peril and Preservation, 1922-32: Photographs by Richard Pare"; Pare's photographs are featured in the special issue, and its articles grew out of a symposium associated with the exhibition. The articles raise questions about what the dissolution of the Soviet Union has meant for Soviet architecture. How would, for example, factories and apartment complexes built in one economic system survive in another? Which buildings would be valued, and which would be hurriedly torn down, subjected to vandalism, repurposed, or reconstructed? Future Anterior 5.1 brings needed attention to historic preservation in the former Soviet Union.
 
Future Anterior is published twice a year.

6) Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts: Media Release -
National Library building celebrates 40 years
 
The National Library of Australia celebrates the 40th anniversary of the opening of its iconic building with a series of special events on Monday 25 August.
 
With its elegant classical lines, the building is a tribute to the vision of architects Bunning and Madden and includes important contributions from renowned artists Henry Moore, Tom Bass and Leonard French. The Library is a landmark building in Canberra's Parliamentary Triangle and the principal storehouse of Australia's documentary heritage.
 
In the mid-1950s, almost 30 years after moving from its first home in Melbourne, the Library's collection was spread across 15 buildings in Canberra including the morgue, laundry and caretaker's office at the old Canberra Hospital at Acton, a grocery store at the railway station and (in the case of nitrate films) an explosives shed at the Mugga quarry.
 
In 1961, the Sydney firm Bunning & Madden, with associates Tom O'Mahoney and Noel Potter, was appointed the Library's architect. The foundation stone was laid by Sir Robert Menzies on 31 March 1966. He wanted "something with columns" and while the architects obliged with unmistakeable references to the Parthenon in Athens, they were aware of more contemporary trends. The Library was opened on 15 August 1968 by Prime Minister John Gorton, and admitted its first readers three days later.
 
National Library Director-General Jan Fullerton said, "This anniversary is not just about the past. It is a time to embark on the Library's vision for the future, including a focus on preserving our digital memory and the creation of a new Treasures Gallery."
 
The Federal Minister for the Environment, Heritage and the Arts, the Hon Peter Garrett AM has been invited to cut the 40th birthday cake.
 
More information about the 40th birthday celebrations is available at www.nla.gov.au.
 
A display, The Opening Chapter: Building the National Library, can be seen in the Visitors' Centre until 16 November 2008. High-resolution images of the history of the Library's construction, are available for download at www.nla.gov.au/media/openingchapter/index.html.
 
PHOTO OPPORTUNITY
 
The Hon Peter Garrett AM will cut the birthday cake at about 11.15 am on Monday 25 August in the Foyer of the Library.

7) Business Continuity skills training - curriculum development - update
 
The 11 July E-Mail News carried my request for input to curriculum development for Business Continuity training within the Vocational Education and Training (VET) sector. This message is to update readers on subsequent events.
 
Many thanks to all who responded to my request. Your suggestions have been passed on to the consultants who are working for "Innovation and Business Skills Australia" (IBSA), the body that oversees - among other fields - library and museum training packages in the VET sector.
 
The consultants have now drafted three 'units of competency' for Business Continuity training at three levels: senior, middle and lower. The units are designed for the Australian workforce - not just for people working in the collections sector. IBSA invites comment from interested parties on the content of these draft units of competency, and on a related discussion paper.  The draft units and the discussion paper are located on IBSA's Review and Feedback Register, which is located on the IBSA website. The direct URL is: http://www.ibsa.org.au/content/currentprojects/bus_cont.html. Feedback received will contribute to the further development of the new units, and should be provided by COB Monday 1 September 2008.

-         In NSW, there are formal requirements under the State Records Act. Section 11 of the State Records Act 1998 requires that "Each public office must ensure the safe custody and proper preservation of the State records that it has control of."  To assist public offices (NSW Government Agencies, Councils, Universities, and the public health system) understand and meet this obligation, the State Records Authority of New South Wales has developed the Standard on Counter Disaster Strategies for Records and Recordkeeping Systems. This Standard is mandatory, covers records in all formats (paper-based and digital) and all NSW public offices are expected to implement the requirements of the Standard. The Standard was designed to dovetail into the business continuity framework, but to also focus attention on particular information assets - records and the recordkeeping systems. It emphasises that the counter disaster plan for records must dovetail with the organisation's business continuity plan. The Standard is available from http://www.records.nsw.gov.au/recordkeeping/counter_disaster_strategies_4437..asp and Guidelines for the implementation of the Standard are available from http://www.records.nsw.gov.au/recordkeeping/guideline_5_counter_disaster_strategies_5021.asp
