I have been going through the same process -- and still am. Here are the
things I have come across so far -- but nothing really nitty-gritty. I am
looking for a course in one of the many museum studies programs in the
Boston area, but no luck so far. If you get any useful information
off-list, could I ask you to forward it on to me?
THe NEw Museum Registration Methods has a chapter on preparation that's not
very specific
AASLH (American Assoc of State and Local History) Technical Leaflet "Exhibit
Mounts on a Budget" -- perhaps the most detailed and useful -- ordering
information on their website
National Park Service Conserv O Grams (there are a few for specific types of
collections, such as basketry and works on paper -- free pdf download from
their website
Canadian Conservation Institute's Technical Bulletin #14, "Working with
Polyethylene Foam and fluted plastic sheet" is useful -- order through their
website
Good luck,

Hello everyone,
I've just finished Mount-Making for Museum Objects from the Canadian
Conservation Institute. Although it has some very good information in
it, I'm looking for something a little more in-depth. More of a step by
step format. Particularly dealing with metal armatures and shaping
plexiglass. Anyone have any suggestions??
Thank you,
Jerry Fahey
