Environment and the Care of Prints and Drawings is an AASLH Technical Leaflet. AASLH Technical Leaflets are brief, practical guides on how to do history. Technical Leaflet #280 by Margaret Holben Ellis explains how to determine what conditions are best from a preservation point of view and how to objectively examine those that are also achievable and sustainable for historical organizations. Every institution wants to give its collection of prints and drawings the best possible protection from poor environmental conditions resulting from air pollution, temperature, humidity, and light. Without being a heating and cooling engineer, you can determine what environmental conditions are best for your collection and learn how to measure and monitor them.
