Subject: Low Cost or No Cost Museum Tips
I am working on a very brief program (45 minutes) on "making the most of what you have" for a group of local museum volunteers and staff. It's kind of a how to take care of your collections on a shoestring budget. The Northeast Document Center has some great ideas how to improve climate control: http://www.nedcc.org/resources/leaflets/2The_Environment/06LowCostNoCost.php.
Does anyone else have low cost/no cost Museum tips that would like to share?
