TB 37 Control of Pollutants in Museums and Archives

Description:: This Technical Bulletin proposes guidelines for the optimal control of pollutants in museums, archives and any other heritage institution. It identifies common sources of pollutants and objects at risk. It offers multi-level actions to reduce pollutant levels and to minimize uncertainties when evaluating risks. Special attention is given to highly vulnerable objects, for which tailored preservation specifications are suggested. Two aspects of preventive conservation are covered in detail: the filtration of airborne pollutants at the building level and monitoring. The monitoring section contains various possibilities for collecting data on different scenarios, from the overall building to a narrow investigation on what could have damaged a specific object. Please note that the information provided does not deal with health and safety issues.
