1. The damage caused by light to the collection is gradually accumulated and imperceptible, so the influence caused by light should be minimized.

Avoid direct exposure of organic matter to sunlight, even in a short time. Use ultraviolet filter membrane to block fluorescent lamps and outdoor ultraviolet rays, and try to use white light. But don't put artworks near the hundred lanterns, because the angelica dahurica lanterns will give off heat. Most collections sensitive to light damage should not be displayed for a long time and should be rotated regularly.

2. Place the collection in an environment with appropriate relative humidity and temperature.

The relative humidity and temperature of the basement attic garage are the most unstable and prone to drastic changes. Don't put fragile collectibles in fireplaces, air-conditioning outlets, places with direct light and near bathrooms. We should try to prevent the growth of mold and the activities of harmful substances. Organic matter should be placed in a stable environment, and the relative humidity should be controlled at about 50%. In hot summer, we should ensure cool air and good circulation system. Desiccant should be used in wet areas. In dry season and hot summer, use portable steamer humidifier.

3. Minimize the impact of air pollution.

By regularly upgrading and cleaning heaters and air conditioners. Paper products and textiles should be put in glass cabinets to prevent acid corrosion and dust wear. Don't show the collection in the kitchen and where there is a fire. The use of new wood products, adhesives, carpets and chemicals should be limited around your collection. Spray polishes and products containing silicone should be avoided. The use time of adhesive film on furniture should not exceed one year. Daily cleaning should use wet cotton cloth, magnetic wiping cloth and soft natural brush.

4. Reduce the activities of harmful animals

Careful management and proper warehouse can protect the collection from harmful animals. Organic matter should not be displayed and stored in a humid environment, and food should not be stored around it. Check the collection at least once a year to see if there are any traces of insect activities, such as larvae, powdery sediments and small holes. If there are such traces, immediately put the collection into a sealed plastic bag and consider the solution.

5. Know how to move your collection

Many collections are much more fragile than we thought. Before moving the collection, you should carefully observe the surrounding situation and size. Make sure you can move it yourself. If you can't move it, please ask for help in time. Before moving the collection, you should clean up the collection place. When moving the collection, hands should be kept dry and liquid-free, and it is best to use clean cotton cloth or plastic gloves.

When moving small or light collections, plates and baskets with protective pads should be used. Acid oil and salt on human skin will tarnish and corrode metal utensils, and also damage lacquerware and other porous pottery. When lifting a sculpture, be sure to hold its bottom or main body, and never grasp its protruding part. Hold the bottom of the furniture when lifting it, and don't grab its appendages, such as legs.

When moving vertical artworks with frames, please put the frames in a safe place. Don't touch the front and back of the oil painting, touching will lead to cracks and other damage. Cleaning agents, alcohol or pesticides should be kept away from artworks. When the surfaces of oil paintings and other objects are in good condition, you can use a soft natural brush to clean them. Don't use feather dusters to clean up, because they will sweep away some small pieces on the oil painting (some are in small gaps in the oil painting). Before moving clocks and watches, clean up the surrounding articles, ensure that buttons, buckles and other accessories are not connected with the moved collection when moving the collection, and keep the surface of the collection clean, and do not put it together with keys, paper tools and writing utensils.

6. How to show the series

The firmness and safety of hanging equipment for oil paintings and other framed exhibits should be ensured. Works of art should be properly framed. Fragile collectibles should be kept away from vulnerable areas. Exhibits should be put in special glass cabinets. Do not use sticky substances to stick unstable inorganic substances to shelves or other surfaces.

7. Collection of collections

Carefully select some items to display and collect your collection, so that they are in harmony with the collection. Wood, wood products and many paper products derived from wood contain harmful acids, so they should not be used to protect prehistoric times, because they will accelerate the damage of the collection and make the surface of the collection appear spots. It is best to use storage boxes and paper to store documents, because the pulp used to make these paper products is processed. These articles can be used in cushioning and non-cushioning structures. For many paper products, cushioning products are the best choice. Non-buffering products are suitable for photos, wool, silk, leather and other slightly acidic items.

Use the archival materials recommended by the staff or custodian to establish a complete file, and store the photos in the file or inert plastic envelope to accurately record every feature of the collection.

Some types of plastic storage products may damage your photos, slides and negatives. Choose stable plastics, such as polyester, polyethylene, polypropylene and polycarbonate. Ethylene polymers, chlorinated plastics and sticky photo albums should not be used, and the collection should not be in direct contact with rubber belts, rubber adhesives and other adhesives, as well as clay and other clay used to mark statues immediately. Do not use foam rubber polyurethane foam rubber newspaper or fine shavings to wrap or fill this series. Safe polyethylene foam provided by professional manufacturers of wenbao products can be used.

There should be enough space in the box for storing three-dimensional articles. Don't put too many things in a box. Separate articles with neutral gauze or unwashed fine cotton cloth. These fine cotton fabrics should be washed twice with a washing machine, once with soap and once without use. They can be used after drying. If textiles need to be folded, they should be padded with thin gauze to avoid permanent creases.

Protect large items that can't be packed in the box with washed soft muslin and neutral gauze. Mounted works of art should be collected vertically and separated from each other by document cardboard.

Metal collections should be placed in a dry environment. In order to avoid tarnishing of silverware, cloth should be used when storing silverware. It is also suitable for jewelry storage or non-acid buffer yarn fabrics. The collections with fragile surfaces such as crayons and charcoal sketches need special treatment, and full-time custodians should be consulted.
