City of Baton Rouge

The East Baton Rouge Parish Library will purchase two thermo-hygrometers, a portable light meter, and acid-free storage boxes to rehouse archival materials held by its local history collection, the Baton Rouge Room. The environmental monitoring equipment will be of special benefit to the library as its archival materials (e.g., photographs, city documents, maps) are currently subject to high levels of humidity and damaging light.
