Description: Applying Numbers to Collection Objects covers the materials and methods of object numbering: registration, handling, labeling and marking, number placement, documentation, health and safety, transponders and barcodes, surface marks, inks, paints and barrier coats. Each participant receives a Northern States Conservation Center collections labeling kit and performs experiments using its contents. Participants learn to determine what pen, ink, barrier coat or tag is appropriate for each object and storage or display situation.

Student Comments for MS208: Applying Numbers to Collection Objects: "I loved the practical assignments. I loved the feedback from Helen. And I loved the live chat sessions." - MS208 participant "The organization of the course was excellent - readings were well-constructed and well-placed within the greater course context … I was pleased that we had homework where we were expected to apply some of the concepts we'd read about." - MS208 participant "I liked the ability to receive instruction without having to leave my office or go out of town." - MS208 participant "I was able to learn so much about numbering museum items that I did not know. I had tried to do research on the Internet and had found some things, but nothing like what we covered through the course." - MS208 participant
