The museum storage market is both interesting and challenging for the sheer variety of items and the special shelving storage requirements for those priceless objects. Museums have to store, display, or archive everything, from massive paleontological samples to taxidermy, to small specimens. Valuable manuscripts, fragile paintings, and on-loan collections may require special security storage considerations as well.
