Beginning in 2008, the Getty Conservation Institute, in partnership with the Academy of Fine Art and Design (AFAD) in Bratislava, and the Slovak National Library (SNL) in Martin, organized a multiyear project, Conservation of Photographs and Photograph Collections for Central, Southern, and Eastern Europe, with the aim to develop the field of photograph conservation in the region. A component of this project was the three-year course "Fundamentals of the Conservation of Photographs."

The didactic materials below were originally developed for this course.
