Dear Colleagues:
Thanks for your responses on temporary storage.

New questions:
Does anyone know if there has been any research conducted on the
effectiveness of
"DO NOT TOUCH THE WORKS OF ART" signage?

Has anyone seen changes in the behavior of visitors (that is less
touching of the works) as a result of the signs?

Thanks
Jose
