The number of visitors who insist on taking beverages into
the museum for medical reasons seems to have increased a lot lately. Water
(for a pulmonary condition, for example) isn’t so much an issue – we just ask
them to be sure the bottle is capped tightly and stowed out of sight when not
use. On the other hand, many people are now saying they must have Coke or
some kind of soft drink with them due to diabetes. This is more
problematic. I’m wondering if others are seeing an uptick along these
lines and, if so, how they are handling the balance between protecting
collections and offering a good visitor service. Thanks!
