The Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners (MBLC) has
been providing environmental monitoring services free of charge to libraries,
archives, museums, historical societies, and town offices for sixteen
years. Normally two dataloggers are installed inside and one
outside. However, depending on the institution’s needs, more than three can
be installed. There are now openings on the waiting list starting in
August 2013. If you have never had this done, have done major renovations
or changes to your facility since monitoring was done previously, or have moved
into a new facility no later than this past summer, you might want to think
about monitoring. A description of the program is at http://mblc.state.ma.us/advisory/preservation/monitoring.php.
