Hawaii Volcanoes National Park: Collection Management Plan
The collections of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park are comprised of historical, ethnographic, archeological, and fine arts objects as well as an extensive and active natural history collection. In a recent appraisal the cultural objects were valued at more than one million dollars. The natural history collection is increasing almost daily as a result of an active research center and resource management division at the park. A Collection Management Plan is one of the basic required cultural resource management and preservation documents for the areas of the National Park System with museum collections. It provides information for care of objects in a timely, orderly, and professional manner to ensure their maintenance and preservation. The plan also provides guidance in programming, storage, environmental controls, housekeeping, emergency preservation and conservation of artifacts, cyclic maintenance, and record keeping and accountability. The Plan makes recommendations that will be useful to park and regional managers to continue curatorial operations that meet standards expressed in the NPS Museum Handbook, Manual for Museums, NPS Management Policies, NPS Guidelines, and the Conserve O Gram technical preservation series.
