MDA manages the Collections Link service, in partnership with the
Institute of Conservation (ICON) and the National Preservation Office
(NPO).
There are two ways you might like to try to find out about
environmental monitoring equipment:
1. Use the telephone adviceline - 0845 838 4000
2. Look on the website at:
http://www.collectionslink.org.uk
See the section "Monitor my Environment". This includes fact sheets
and guidelines. In particular there is the:
'Relative Humidity and Temperature Pattern Book' by May Cassar and
Jeremy Hutchings (originally published by MGC).
Collections Link also offers help and advice in the full range
collections management disciplines.
