Traditional care and conservation, the merging of two disciplines at the National Museum of the American Indian

Abstract

An important part of the mission of the National Museum of the American Indian is to work in collaboration, cooperation and consultation with Native Peoples. Fundamental to collections storage and conservation policy is the interaction between museum staff, both non-Native and Native, and tribal individuals. These groups are working together to establish how the collections are stored and housed, how they are handled, and how the museum adapts to tribal requests and restrictions.
