I am a graduate student at the University of Central Oklahoma, and I am writing a research paper over ways that museums protect their collections without compromising their aesthetics, from implied barriers to security.

I was hoping that some here would be willing to share some information on the protection practices of various museums, and any sources relevant to deterring visitors from harming a piece as well other protective measure, and the effectiveness of these measures.

I apologize if this message was sent twice: I resent it because it did not seem to go through.
