My museum has several Japanese/Chinese screens that are needing a permanent in-house home.  What is the best way to store them – vertical, horizontal, flat or on their side, on a fully supported flat surface (shelf) or will support under 3-4 spots be OK? 

At the moment, some are vertical leaning up against a wall and others are on their “spine”.  Any help is appreciated.
