Care and Preservation
Whether you work within a museum, archive or library you will be well informed about your particular collection and the best way to care for and preserve it.
However, when it comes to storing your collection you might need support. Where can you turn for impartial advice? Who has the experience and knowledge to understand your problems?
Once armed with the information you require to store your collection, you will find the process of creating a shelving specification easier to tackle.
Heritage experts have identified “must read” professional documents associated with storage, care and preservation. A selection of papers is accessible from this section. Within these pages you will find objective overviews and summaries, providing you with a clear idea of what you need to include in your specification. Finally, examples of actual specifications should give you all the information you need to create your own.
