Framework for preserving heritage collections : strategies for avoiding or reducing damage.: CH57-4/29-2021E-PDF

"This quick reference tool provides heritage professionals with practical advice on how to protect collections from the agents of deterioration. The recommendations are grouped under three categories: building features, portable fittings and procedures. The recommendations follow the stages of control (avoid, block, detect and respond) that constitute preventive conservation, and they focus on the specific location of the objects (in transit, on display or in storage). The tool also lists issues related to climate change and sustainability"--Provided by publisher.
