NEDCC's Andover Facility Closed for Two Weeks
***************************************
Governor Baker has ordered all non-essential businesses in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to cease in-person operations for two weeks to contain the spread of COVID-19. Consequently, NEDCC's Andover, Massachusetts facility will be closed until April 7 at noon.
Conservation and digital reformatting projects, of course, will be temporarily suspended. For those clients whose collections materials are currently stored in NEDCC's vault, rest assured that they are safe and secure. Contact NEDCC staff if you have questions. www.nedcc.org/staff
