Description

As the agency reported it.

Museum staff will also catalog and photograph an additional 3,800 large objects to prepare to move them to the museum's collection center, which offers improved environmental conditions. The project will support two temporary full-time oceanic collections specialists, who will work closely with museum staff to undertake project activities. The project will improve the museum's intellectual control of the collection, provide upgraded storage conditions for the long-term preservation of the oceanic collection, and enhance accessibility of the collection for museum staff, researchers, and the public. The project will also ensure that members of the pacific island community have greater access to the collection and the cultural knowledge found within IT.
