NARA’s Presidential Libraries house over half a million artifacts - too many to exhibit at any one time! When artifacts are not on display they are preserved in a proper environment using protective storage techniques. Artifacts come in a variety of shapes and sizes so many different storage options are needed to accommodate them. We usually provide a tray, box, bag or other type of container to protect the artifact. Storage techniques developed by NARA’s Preservation Programs, like the ones shown here, provide maximum visibility while decreasing the need for handling the artifact.
