<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000">This has been a very interesting discussion, and the broader topic of space and the ordering of collection storage arrays is increasingly problematic. A few comments followed by a proposal:</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000">1. Saving labels. It is important to distinguish between labels that carry original information (particularly hand-written labels) and those designed to be replaced (for example, those produced by a thermal printer). As Simon, Erik, Dirk, and others have pointed out, the preservation of handwriting, ink, label style, and label substrate (paper, plastic, etc.) can all be critical factors in elucidating the history of specimens in a collection. The links that Laura provided will take you to a 1992 article by Karla Kishinami on saving labels that provides additional suggestions for how this can be done, in addition to those provided by Simon and others in today's discussion. Digitizing old labels is a good practice, but digitization will not tell you everything you need to know (such as the paper type) and there is no way to permanently store digital information.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000">2. Smaller Jars/More Specimens per Jar--proceed with caution if you take this approach. There is no research done on the necessary minimum ratio of fluid volume to specimen volume, but anecdotal observations indicates that it can affect long-term usefulness of specimens. The only data I am aware of comes from an unpublished Smithsonian report from 1995 in which it was determined, based on examination of specimens, that the minimum ratio of fluid to specimens should be 7:3. Cramming too many specimens in a jar not only affects the chemistry of the fluid (which constantly interacts with the specimens) but also means more handling and hence more damage to specimens when you need to get one out of the jar.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000">3. Collection Storage Arrays--Dean and Rob point have made excellent points about collection arrangements. Many collections can no longer afford the luxury of so-called phylogenetic arrangements of specimens. It is a poor use of space, and increasingly frequent name changes and phylogenetic re-arrangements mean a lot of time must be spent re-arranging jars. In any case, the so-called phylogenetic arrangement of a collection is not at all phylogenetic--I have yet to see shelving or cabinets arranged in branching sequences. Instead, it is a throwback to the old <i>scala natura</i> so beloved by Agassiz and his fellow Darwin deniers. It is time to give arrangement by jar size a new look. This system was used half a century or more ago and found to be difficult to use when location data was kept in awkward card files, but we have computers for that sort of thing now. The collection should not be arranged for browsing, it should arranged for efficiency of storage and retrieval and to provide the best storage environment to prolong the useful life of specimens. We dan do better than the way we use collection space now.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000">4. Storage Furniture--shelving and cabinets used in storage are based on designs that are centuries old and must be re-thought. One serious disadvantage to dense arrangements by jar size are that it is usually very difficult or impossible to monitor individual jars without having to pick up and move the jars in front that block your view. We need to re-think the design of storage furniture and on-shelf arrangements to overcome those problems, for example, as Paul has pointed out in the article he provided a link for.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000">5. Do More With Less--Personally, I dislike the phrase "do more with less" but this is a reality we all must face. Collection care staff growth is not keeping up with collection growth. Collection storage space is not keeping up with collection growth, either, nor or budgets. So its time to re-evaluate the tools we have and how we do things, with an emphasis on the use of preventive conservation (take a look at "Application of preventive conservation to solve the coming crisis in collections management" in Collection Forum, which you can download from <a href="https://spnhc.org/resources/27-1-2/">https://spnhc.org/resources/27-1-2/</a>). We need to be more creative about monitoring, stable storage environments, collection storage array order, tracking individual specimen use, and many other aspects of collection management.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000">PROPOSAL: I am going to propose a workshop or symposium on the topic of future sustainable collections care practices for the 2022 SPNHC meeting in Edinburgh. If anyone is interested in participating, particularly via a presentation or poster on the topic, please let me know. This is a subject that needs some serious thought and discussion.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000">Thanks,<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000">John<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000"><br clear="all"></div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><font size="2"><span style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">John E. Simmons<br>Writer and Museum Consultant</span></font></div><div dir="ltr"><font size="2"><span style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">Museologica<br><i>and</i><br>Associate Curator of Collections<br>Earth and Mineral Science Museum & Art Gallery<br>Penn State University<br><i>and</i><br>Investigador Asociado, Departamento de Ornitologia<br>Museo de Historia Natural, Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Lima</span></font><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Jun 4, 2021 at 12:27 PM Dean A. Hendrickson <<a href="mailto:deanhend@austin.utexas.edu">deanhend@austin.utexas.edu</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><img src="https://api2.activeinboxhq.com/1.0/anon/rr/0507b50bca0ea7d1d0466eca3c3c856d" style="display: none;" width="1" height="1"><img src="https://api2.activeinboxhq.com/1.0/anon/rr/0507b50bca0ea7d1d0466eca3c3c856d" style="display: none;" width="1" height="1">More on the topic of shelving system compression to save extremely limited space in: <div><br></div><div><div style="line-height:2;margin-left:2em">

Hello everyone, <br>
<br>
Thank you very kindly for your responses and input! <br>
I do intend to digitize the labels before any final movement of them however, we are also planning to convert our database from Access to Specify in the next year or two. Until we switch into Specify, our photos will be stored on a separate hard drive and won't
 be attached to the individual records right away. I'm not keen on discarding the labels entirely, as I agree with the notion that digital data remains vulnerable to several sources (e.g., hackers, server failure, human error, etc.), and the curators here are
 able to recognize the handwriting of previous curators and collectors, as others have noted.<br>
<br>
Simon - Organizing the labels into stamp albums is a clever idea! We may do something similar - maybe something like a trading card binder. <br>
Eric - I'm partial to jar-size labels too! I'm hoping to make this my next project after organizing the jars by size. <br>
<br>
Lennart - Storing them in alcohol would take up additional space, and if you store multiple labels in a single jar of alcohol, retrieving and returning individual labels becomes a challenge and risks damaging the labels. My vote is to store them in a dry envelope
 or filing system like Simon suggested. <br>
Has anyone laminated their old/redundant/archived labels? Some of our labels are in poor condition and laminating them may make handling them less hazardous. <br>
<br>

At the Natural History Museum in London we mounted all old / redundant labels into stamp albums with Mylar strips. This was to preserve handwritings of former curators and conservators, also some historic labels.  I was unsure about relying entirely on digital

> We are about to begin a major reorganization project here at Harbor Branch to conserve on space and allow for future growth. One part to this project includes rehousing wet specimens into smaller size-appropriate jars, with our smallest jar being 20mL scintillation
 vials, then barcoding and organizing the jars by size. I’ve run into a dilemma with this however, and I wanted to ask the community for suggestions.  <br>
> <br>
> Specimens housed in 20mL vials are currently stored in larger 8 oz jars so the handwritten collection label and printed label (2”x 3”) are housed with the specimen. By removing the 8 oz jars though, we can save a substantial amount of space. For example –
 we can house more than 5,500 scintillation jars in a single column of shelves, as opposed to ~900 8 oz jars per column. The problem with the small scintillation jars is that the collection labels are too large to store inside of them. While these jars will
 be barcoded with catalog numbers and unique location, I’m still uncomfortable with removing the internal specimen labels. <br>
> <br>
> One idea is to house these labels in a near-by folder and after this project is completed, printing off new jar-size appropriate labels, possibly with reduced information. The original handwritten labels will likely have to stay in this folder long-term though. <br>
> <br>
> I’m curious if anyone else has tackled this dilemma, or might have ideas on how they would address it if it were their own collection?  <br>
