The American Museum of Natural History will conduct a risk assessment of collections currently displayed in its 46 permanent halls. The primary goal of the project is to prioritize the needs of the collections on exhibit in an objective and relational way, providing a basis for strategic collections care planning. The assessment will result in more efficient risk-mitigation strategies and will provide the foundation for a long-term plan.
