Light control has been heavily discussed in the past on this list, so there are excellent resources out there. Please remember light control is not just eliminating UV, but also includes reducing visible light and reducing the length of exposure. No museum worth its salt would lend objects to be placed in front of window that just had UV protection. So, don't forget to address these other issues as well.
