Survey Continued
2. Town Hall Basement Vault-continued
Recommendations:  This collection is a very important part of the Town's history, and priority should be given to moving it as soon as possible to a safe location. Because these are Town documents, which according to the Massachusetts State Law should be kept in the Town Hall, this will pose a challenge, as there is no fireproof vault in Town Hall. Please see the articles Temperature, Relative Humidity, Light, and Air Quality Basic Guidelines for Preservation and Drying Wet Books and Records, in Appendix VI.
