Sources for Preservation

All of my training was from doing it myself, asking for specialized help as well as the landscape of preservation from professionals (Rebecca Newberry of Science Museum of Minnesota, Mollie Spillman of Ramsey County Historical Society, and Midwest Art Conservation Center), and a lot of internet research.

Some online sources I found most helpful are listed below with some links.
