I'm interested in putting together some guidelines for our exhibition designers to encourage them to design cases and platforms with IPM in mind, i.e. casework which is easy to clean inside and underneath, can be easily moved for monitoring purposes or deep cleaning, and is constructed of materials pests do not like to eat. I'd like to give them more guidance than just 'easy to clean'-has anyone any advice or resources they can suggest to back up my general recommendations? I'm particularly interested in drawings of cases, and also examples of how other institutions have tackled this problem, especially in light of tight budgets and fast exhibition turnover. Many thanks, Bernice Bernice Morris Assistant Conservator of Costume and Textiles Philadelphia Museum of Art 215-684-7579 bernice.mor...@philamuseum.org <mailto:bernice.mor...@philamuseum.org> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To send an email to the list, send your msg to pestlist@museumpests.Net To unsubscribe from this list send an email to pestlist@museumpests.net and in the subject put: "unsubscribe" - no quotes please.
