[OR_Archaeology] Preservation Directory launches page on Facebook

[Susan White]

PreservationDirectory.com, a leading online resource for historic preservation and cultural resource management, has launched a companion page on Facebook. 

The focus of the Facebook page will be to disseminate historic preservation-related news and policy alerts, job postings for museum/architecture/organizations, and photos of historic places and structures.  The goal will be to use the networking expertise of Facebook to keep members aware of preservation news, job information, and policy alerts.

According to Tim Cannan, President of PreservationDirectory.com, "the new Facebook page will allow us to reach members instantly with late-breaking historic preservation news.  We are also very excited to be able alert our members to job listings as soon as they are added to PreservationDirectory.com."

To view the new PreservationDirectory.com Facebook page, go to http://www.facebook.com/pages/PreservationDirectorycom/182062916596.

To celebrate the launch of the new companion group page on Facebook, PreservationDirectory.com has added hundreds of photos from their personal achives to the new group page.  The photos are some of their favorite shots of buildings, roadside attractions, and other cultural sites from travels across North America.

Collaboration is also a big part of PreservationDirectory.com - in that spirit, they are looking for photos from the public to add to the architectural photo gallery.  To submit photos and to receive historic preservation-related alerts, join the Facebook historic preservation group at http://www.facebook.com/pages/PreservationDirectorycom/182062916596.

In addition to regular updates to the architectural photo gallery, look for job postings in the fields of historic preservation, cultural resources and architecture, and policy alerts with links to new and archived documents.
