Subject: Off-site temporary museum collection storage
Hi,
Are there resources for finding AAM approved climate-controlled storage facilities and/or colleague recommendations? Midwest preferred (we're in Chicago but open to storing out of state if we need to). We are looking for temporary off-site storage options for some of our collection (photographs and some small sculptural works). Most of our collection can live in cool vault climate but we are also looking for who may offer cold vault storage (40F / 40% RH) for our extra sensitives.
Thanks,
C. Meier
