2007 - ATALM | Association of Tribal Archives, Libraries, & Museums

20 2007 National Conference of Tribal Archives, Libraries, and Museums
it is important to take an “Inside-Out View.” Far too often, financial resources are spent on external features
of a facility, with little thought going into the long-term protection of permanent collections. Speaking from
experience, the presenter of this session will share “lessons learned” in the design of archival and museum
storage facilities. The session will cover design principles that provide added physical security and environmental
protection. Restricting access to virtual collections will be covered, along with the need to address migration
of vital records stored on servers or magnetic media. Extensive handouts will be provided.
