摘要：Good conservation of our cultural heritage is based on informed decisions. Information to make these decisions is, in part, obtained through the use of documentation and recording tools following general principles. Knowledge of these principles, tools and their uses is readily available, however many of the decision makers are unaware, uninformed or unconvinced of their benefits. Several reasons for this include a misunderstanding or intimidation by the language or technology. This has long been an issue in the field of conservation and this paper presents two publications that highlight guiding principles and documentation tools using illustrated case studies as examples. These publications were designed and written with the manager, mid- career architect or conservator in mind - those who make decisions and work in the field therefore need to identify and select documentation tools. They are non-technical books and the principles and example can be read by these busy professionals within thirty minutes. The principles are intended to guide rather than institute hard rules about how to go about documentation while the collection of examples balances technology, geography, and site significance and will serve as a beginning reference guide to the conservation community. Significant contributors from ICOMOS, ISPRS and CIPA were included in creating these books. This paper will describe the research, methodology and lessons learned from compiling and editing the material and will present the conference participants with the first official edition of these new publications
