Looking at the general guidance for storage enclosures, the types of paper, board and plastics which can be used for the storage of paper based archives, the criteria these materials should fulfil and what to use for what.

Going Green Gathering. Sustainability in Museums: Quick Tips for Action
Co-produced by Amersham Museums and Buckinghamshire Culture the session welcomes Rebecca Harrison and me to their next Going Green Gathering.
Rebecca invites us to explore how might we lower the carbon footprint of our data creation and storage and how we can ensure practical making is as green as possible. The session presents the latest research into the environmental impact of CGI versus actual making and the sustainability of AI.
I’ll discuss Sustainability in Museums and develop Quick Tips for Action, sharing ideas, inspiration and motivation for practical environmental sustainability. Actions that you can do immediately, for low or no cost, illustrated with real-life case studies. The session will focus on sustainability in relation to collections care, especially in small museums.
