Here you’ll find the most asked questions by clients like you.
What if I don’t know what I need?
No problem, that’s what our consultations are for. If your family photos are in shoeboxes and needing a better storage solution, or if your museum’s documentation requires some guidance, we can work together to figure out what will work for your collection, no matter the size.
How long will my project take?
Depending on your project and the business of the season, work can take anywhere between 1 month and 1 year. For example, re-housing and digitisation are time-consuming tasks, but the benefit of these services is that they should only need to be done once.
Where will the work take place?
Depending on the size of your collection and the space[s] it is housed in, I can do my work on- or off-site. If you are anxious about the movement of your objects, we can discuss options in our consultations. With COVID-19 regulations currently in place, I will be working remotely except under special circumstances.
Are there options for different budgets?
Yes! Every project is tailored to its own unique budget, and we will find ways to better the care of your collection regardless of the budget available. We can also discuss options for funding if this is something you would like to consider.
Do you work alone?
For the most part, yes. I source materials, create databases, and inventory your objects myself. However, if your collection requires conservation, for example, I am able to either refer or work directly with conservators who can care for your objects. I have a trusted address book of heritage professionals to work with if your collection requires expertise outside my own.
