<html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html charset=windows-1252"></head><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;">Based on correspondence with Gretchen Anderson this summer (thanks, Gretchen!), our student workers replaced old foam gaskets on two Lane cabinets successfully using P profile silicone gaskets. There is no problem with doors closing and it looks like a good seal.<div><br></div><div>One of them, Stephen Perkins, is working up 2 page “how-to” manual based on this work. He’s not done yet, but below is the info on where they obtained the material. Silicone is inert so it is archival quality so the main issue is to make sure you use an archival quality adhesive. If you want the details and photos, please contact me directly (<a href="mailto:cahaas@vt.edu">cahaas@vt.edu</a>) and Stephen or I can send you his document.</div><div><div style="margin: 0px; font-family: Arial; min-height: 14px;">

material to the Lane cabinets, we used 3M Scotch adhesive transfer tape 969—an

The only problem is that it likely won't be archival quality. If that's something you are concerned about, I would look into Volara.

I have a number of collections storage cabinets from Lane Science with deteriorating gaskets. Lane does not sell replacements.<br><br>University Products suggests that their polyethylene foam rods are good for replacing gaskets (http://www.universityproducts.com/cart.php?m=product_list&c=1161), but the sales department there didn't know if anyone who had actually used the product in that way.<br><br>So I am looking for suggestions for suppliers and brands of appropriate gaskets as well as suggestions for the best way to attach it.<br><br>Thank you!<br>Ann-Eliza<br><br><br>--<br>Ann-Eliza Lewis, PhD<br>Collection Manager<br>Joseph Moore Museum<br>Earlham College<br>lewisan@earlham.edu<mailto:lewisan@earlham.edu><br>765-983-1320<br><br><br><br>The information contained in this message and/or attachments is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.

Please contact Amy if you have any questions (covella@carnegiemnh.org<mailto:covella@carnegiemnh.org> )<br>October 9, 2014<br>To Whom It May Concern:<br>The Anthropology collection at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History will be closed to research completely for approximately two years, beginning summer 2015. While this is a long time, it is for a very good reason. We have been awarded an NEH grant that will be used to install compactor storage in the Archaeological collection area. This is a huge step in ensuring the preservation and accessibility of the collection. If anyone would like access prior to June 2015, please contact me. I will do my best to arrange that for you.<br>Sincerely,<br>Amy L.
