  • Collections and Assets in Museums
    Foresight Research Report: Collections and Assets in Museums Document Overview The following research report is designed to provide an overview of key strategic issues relevant to the future of California communities and museums. We hope that this report will be of interest to California museum professionals working to improve service to their community and to plan for the future. From the Spring of 2012 to the Summer of 2013, a team of museum professionals participating in the California Association of Museum’s Leaders of the Future: Museum Professionals Developing Strategic Foresight training project conducted their own secondary (desktop) research on current conditions, trends, and plans for a baseline forecast that postulates the most expected futures for museums in the domain of the collections and assets. A group of members of the California Association of Museum’s Foresight Committee worked to complete this report. The authors of this report include: . Leigh Gleason, Curator of Collections, UCR/California Museum of Photography (team leader) . David Bloom, VertNet Coordinator, Museum of Vertebrate Zoology, UC Berkeley . Paul Spitzzeri, Assistant Director, Workman and Temple Family Homestead Museum . Lisa Eriksen, Principal, Lisa Eriksen Consulting While by no means comprehensive, this report is intended to define the idea of “Collections and Assets in Museums,” explore the most pressing issues and possible futures that may result from these circumstances, and create a framework upon which a baseline forecast could be presented.

  • Collections Maintenance and Care: Agents of Deterioration – Practical Exercise
    Collections Maintenance and Care: Agents of Deterioration – Practical Exercise One of the most important elements in collections care is preventing the destructive affects of the nine agents of deterioration. This effort, known commonly as preventative conservation, looks to detect, avoid, block, or mitigate any and all damage caused by these agents. In this exercise, you will be presented with three scenarios featuring one or more agents of deterioration. For each scenario, identify which agents you think are causing the damage. Then in the space provided, devise a basic plan to stop or impede the deterioration. Use the following guides to help make your decisions: Simmons, John E., Things Great and Small: Collections Management Policies, Chapter 12. Hoffman, Frank W. and Richard J. Wood, Library Collection Development Policies, Chapter 20. Scenario #1: You decide to check on the storage area where your institution’s historic furnishings are stored when not on display. While examining the silverware set, you notice some of the forks are now tarnished. You recall that maintenance staff had recently been near the storage area and used a cleaning material that you aren’t familiar with. At the same time, staff complained of an odd odor. Agents of Deterioration Direct Physical Force Pollutants and Contaminants Thieves/Vandals Light and Radiation Fire Incorrect Temperature Water Incorrect Relative Humidity Pests Plan of Action Scenario #2: A researcher comes to his appointment to access your historic letter collection and you retrieve the collection for him. At the end of the day, the collection is returned to you. Upon inspection of the letter collection, you see that several pages have creases that were not reported on the condition report in your database.

    Director of Collections and Research (rev. September 2020) Bar Harbor, Maine Type: Full Time, Experienced Required Degree: MA or equivalent experience Salary: $45,000 - $60,000 with benefits With the mission to inspire new learning about the Wabanaki Nations with every visit, the Abbe Museum is a decolonizing museum, offering changing exhibitions and a robust programming schedule for all ages, welcoming 30,000 visitors each year on Mount Desert Island, Maine, home of Acadia National Park. Wabanaki people are engaged in all aspects of the museum, from curatorial roles to policymaking. The Abbe is an active member of the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience and an involved community anchor. Annually, we hire over 30 Native artists and demonstrators to lead programs for schools and public audiences, serve on advisory committees, and as content specialists. We represent over 80 Native artists in our shops, making us an economic engine for tribal communities. In 2013, the Abbe became the only Smithsonian Affiliate in Maine. The Abbe Museum has the organizational mandate to develop decolonizing museum practices, the first of its kind in non-tribal museums. Through collaborative practice, privileging of Indigenous voice and perspective, and a commitment to telling the full truths of history, the Abbe Museum is breaking ground in 21st-century museum practice. More importantly, we are actively promoting inclusion and power-sharing both within our own organization and in service to Wabanaki communities. It is our hope and intention that this significant work ultimately leads to healing and reconciliation for Native people and museum spaces. The Director of Collections & Research is instrumental in this work.

  • Preservation Responsibilities: Material Care and Materials Science for Paper-Based Research Collections
    PRESERVATION RESPONSIBILITIES: MATERIAL CARE AND MATERIALS SCIENCE FOR PAPER-BASED RESEARCH COLLECTIONS The following is based on an article, prepared at SCMRE by Dianne van der Reyden, for Materials Issues in Art and Archaeology IV (Materials Research Society Symposium Proceedings, Pittsburgh, PA, 1995, vol. 352, pp. 63- 71) ABSTRACT Recently many cultural institutions have reevaluated preservation responsibilities required by any comprehensive program to preserve research collections. There appears to be consensus about core responsibilities with specific action steps and targeted goals, which can be achieved by addressing seven key responsibilities: 1. preservation management (responsible for policies, assessments, resource allotments, etc.); 2. reformatting/duplication (preservation photocopying, microfilming, digitization); 3. environmental control (storage & exhibits, disaster & integrated pest management); 4. collections maintenance (handling & housing); 5. conservation treatment (cleaning, stabilizing, repairing); 6. conservation research (materials characterization, treatment development); 7. preservation training (in all of the above). The following includes an introduction to the topic, explanations of core preservation responsibilities, and a table outlining activities to be implemented if these responsibilities are to be met. Graphics illustrate core preservation responsibilities, as well as issues of concern in preservation.
