Mapping

The Second-Hand Mapping Program (SHMP) will provide a detailed topography and database of second hand resources and outlets nationwide.

Residency Program

The IAR-tist Residency Program offers residencies to professionals who incorporate second-hand processes in form, content or research of their practice. IAR-tists are selected by a panel of other professionals without regard to financial means. Residencies last from two weeks to two months and include rustic accommodations and a small stipend at IAR Field or District offices.

The Iowa City Field Office will offer its first IAR-tist Residency in the June 2002.

Object Registry Database

The Object Registry Database (ORD) catalogues the entire IAR research inventory.

Provenance Archive

The IAR Provenance Archive is designed to help second-hand researchers locate registered IAR objects. Owners of Registered Institute for Adaptive Reuse Objects (RIARO) are expected to keep the reuse community informed on RIARO transitions, transformations and transactions.
