Collections Management
The CRF offers collections management services to assist our clients with all lab-related needs. Our staff have experience assisting agencies, ranging from localities to branches of the federal government, processing and preparing collections for final curation.
Our knowledge of the collections management field, as well as strong and long-standing relationships with State Historic Preservation Offices in many areas, ensures that our lab-based projects are consistently completed on time, on or under budget, and assures the acceptance of collections by state facilities upon initial submittal.
From Excavation to Curation
One of CRF’s specialties is acquiring large collections from excavations conducted by other firms. We administer the transfer of the materials from various repositories to our laboratory and fully process the assemblage to meet all required curation goals. This includes washing, cataloging, detailed analysis, photographic documentation of artifacts, direct labeling, finalizing all associated documents, and coordination with the chief curator and their staff.
