Hello listers,

I'm interested in examples of museums and archives that have exhibited
preservation and/or active conservation treatments. By that, I mean
placed the actual processing or treatment "on display" - either
physically or virtually - and included collections staff and
conservators. Can anyone cite such a project and preferably provide a
url?

 

NMAH's Star Spangled Banner project comes close - but the actual
treatment process was not on display.  The California Academy of
Sciences Project Lab is an example of what I'm seeking -
http://www.calacademy.org/academy/exhibits/projectlab/. 

 

Thanks everyone!

-Karen
