Abstract
The purpose of this project was to research and develop a resource guide for the intervention and prevention of water damage to works of art on paper. It was designed to serve as a model for collections care people in writing a disaster plan for a single museum collection. Specifically, the project resulted in a quick-reference guide to successful prevention of water damage to paperbased artwork before and during an emergency.
