For the first time in the 5yrs I've been doing TSM, someone has taken an
interest in our designated 'offsite' site. They want to change the know if
there are specific temperature and humidity requirements for the cartridges.
I must admit to being totally clueless. Anyone out there know what the ideal
temperature & humidity levels for a tape storage room would be?
Thanks!

72 degrees F (22 Celcius), 40% relative humidity, and a relatively dust-free/lint-free environment.

There is a IBM technical doc on LTO media that discusses this, but I don't have a copy of it and am too tired to look right now.

The operating instructions for a name brand ibm lto generation 1 cartridge list 
operating temp: 50°F to 113°F, storage 60°F to 90°F and 20% to 80% humidity.
