Western Kentucky University (Kentucky Museum)

The Kentucky Museum at Western Kentucky University will improve the long-term care of its collections by upgrading the mechanical system at the museum's off-site, on-campus storage facility. They will institute a program to monitor the temperature of interior surfaces of external walls and investigate points of external air filtration in the building. The upgraded system and related efforts will help preserve the museum's collection of 30,000 artifacts for future exhibitions, programs, instructional opportunities, student work opportunities, and research.
