A consultant's assessment of the collections storage area of the Pennsbury Society and development of an improved plan for safe storage of collections.

This project will engage a consultant, Kory Berrett, to develop a plan for collection storage in Pennsbury Manor’s new Visitor Center storage area. The plan will include recommendations for specific storage furnishings and plans for their layout in the new storage area; it will allow Pennsbury to maximize space use within the available budget. The new storage area will ameliorate the currently inadequate storage conditions and expand available space to enable future additions to the collections.
