Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada

摘要

Available since June 2004, the Standards and Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada is the first Canadian document of its kind to provide a common, useful and concrete reference to guide the decision-making process for heritage conservation. These standards and guidelines define an approach to conservation that is based on preserving the values associated with heritage places. In years to come and with the ever-growing preoccupation with these resources as essential elements of our identity, common values and environment, this document is bound to become an indispensable reference tool for architects working on existing structures or within a historic context.
