This list is meant to provide easy access to supplier information. Most products are available through the the large suppliers listed in the "general" section. The lower section "materials - guide" is meant to provide supplier information for each product found in the material sample book that accompanies the Preservation and Conservation disk. In most cases one supplier local to Colorado and one International supplier are included. The list is arranged alphabetically, by material type. Repetative supplier information will be found throughout.
