The Yale Center for British Art houses a state-of-the-art paper conservation facility to ensure the care and preservation of the Center's works on paper, as well as works on paper and photographs from the Yale University Art Gallery. Using the most advanced equipment available, the Department of Paper Conservation staff members provide complete technical examinations, and implement modern treatment techniques ranging from gentle surface cleanings to complex structural repairs. As part of a comprehensive preservation program, the staff assesses objects for exhibition and loan, devises storage and display solutions, and aids in monitoring and improving the museum’s environmental conditions.
