How to Save Collectibles From Fire, Water Damage
Link Added: 1/09/08
|
|
|
With news of fires and floods grabbing headlines so often these days, collectors of items such as books, manuscripts, posters, documents and maps should consider the issue of disaster recovery. Even if fire doesn't completely destroy collections, it can damage them significantly. Items can be scorched, singed, embrittled, discolored, or soiled by soot and smoke. Water used to extinguish fires can cause staining, discoloration, and ink or color "bleeding." If untreated, mold can grow. Floods and broken pipes, damaged roofs, leaky air conditioning, garden irrigation, and human carelessness can also cause water damage...

IMPACT: The Traveling Exhibit Industry and Sustainability
Link Added: 1/18/08

An awakening to today’s environmental crisis is evident within the popular media. Nearly every sector of society has appropriated the terms sustainable and green, including the museum profession. Much has been published about the construction of green museums, but are the decisions being made within these spaces following similar ideals? How sustainable are museum practices? I attempted to determine how one museum practice, crating and packaging, measured against the ideals of sustainability. While developing what amounted to a list of alternative, green products and designs, I realized I was ignoring why crating and packaging is occurring in the first place, namely for loans and traveling exhibits. I realized that simply using bio-composite board for crate exteriors instead of traditional plywood would not reduce the amount of natural resources consumed and wasted by the museum field. It is the system in which crates are used that is unsustainable not crates in and of themselves.
