The Foundation for Advancement in Conservation is seeking approximately five people who work with collections in the cultural heritage field to provide user experience feedback for an updated STiCH Carbon Calculator. Selected participants will receive a $200 stipend, thanks in part to support from a generous grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.
Participants will participate in a one-on-one Zoom meeting (approximately 1 hour) with the project software developer at a mutually agreed upon time between January 27th and February 7th. During the session, the participant will be asked to complete a number of tasks and may be asked follow-up questions about their decision making. The session will be recorded for internal review. Additional information may be requested via email or a follow-up meeting (not to exceed one hour) in February. Results will help inform improvements to the calculator and associated tools.
Applicants must work with cultural heritage collections as a collections specialist, registrar, conservator, preparator, shipper, etc. To apply, please complete the brief application at https://forms.gle/FrTJHwyh6M15Q2TX6 before Wednesday, January 15th. Participants will be selected to represent a diverse range of perspectives.
