Standing working groups within the committee have produced a costume Bibliography, a Terminology, and Guidelines for collecting, handling and photographing costume. Each is useful not only to museum professionals but is also meant as an aid to the general public. 

  • Bibliography: compiled by Christine Stevens. Contact: (to be announced)
  • Terminology: The Vocabulary of Basic Terms for the Cataloguing of Costume (English, French and German)
  • Guidelines to Handling Costume
  • Costume Service Project. The Costume Service Project is a new addition to our annual meetings. Volunteers from the committee form a Work Group to help a local museum progress toward its own goals related to costume, in a pre-arranged, hands-on project. Coordinator: Vicki Berger, Secretary.
