Hello everyone,

I have a couple conservation questions for the list, I hope you may be able
to help me out.

Does anyone know of a good conservator in the midwest that can do both
textiles and ethnographic materials.  I have a few Native American artifacts
in the collection that need some help.

Also, I am currently working on re-housing portions of our museums textile
collection.  I would like to do rolled storage for certain items.  I have a
large supply of brown cardboard hollow tubes.  I know they are very acidic
but if I cover them in a mylar and then a layer of muslin would that help?
Just curious.

Thanks in advance for your help,
Laura L. Hortz
Curator of Collections
Siouxland Heritage Museums
